433- Our Lady of Victory Basilica, Paris

On a trip to Paris, I went to the Basilica called “Our Lady of Victory.”

This magnificent place of worship is where the Virgin Mary is said have been instrumental in numerous miracles with pilgrims over the years.

From ‘The Little Flower,’ St Teresa of Lisieux to Father Nelson Baker of Buffalo. This is where his devotion to the Virgin Mary began after a pilgrimage to this ‘Titan of History.’

Here are some videos and photos I took while at Notre-Dame des Victoires in Paris. The Basilica has a rich history.

A history that includes Father Charles Degenelles who was inspired by the Madonna back in 1836.

There are over 37,000 ex voto offerings from other pilgrims found covering the walls of this storied place of worship.
