Sunday Church Series - Basilique royale de Saint-Denis

 This is a church that  you must put on your list when visiting Paris. The resting place of most of France's royalty and their families, it is considered the royal necropolis of France.  Located in a northern suburb of Paris, it is one of the most beautiful churches I've visited in Paris.

Sunday Church Series - Basilique Cathèdrale de Saint Denis


This beautiful medieval abbey church, built in the Gothic style is often called the today "royal necropolis of France", as it was the burial place for the kings and their families for centuries. Located in the northern suburb of Saint Denis, it is a Metro ride and the stop if near the church. I highly recommend if you have the time in your stay in Paris for a short side trip.
