Basilique Notre-Dame-de-l'Immaculee-Conception
Statue of the Virgin and child on the altar, in the Basilique Notre-Dame-de-l'Immaculee-Conception or Basilica of Notre-Dame de Boulogne, a Roman Catholic cathedral built 1827-63 in Neoclassical style by Benoit-Agathon Haffreingue, in Boulogne, Pas de Calais, France. The sculpture depicts the local legend of an unmanned boat carrying a statue of the Virgin appearing in the Boulogne estuary in the 7th century, which led to several miracles being performed in the church. The cathedral is listed as a national monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
