The 38 Greatest Churches In The World

 

 

 

St. Peter’s Basilica, Rome

What list comprised of the world’s greatest churches would be anything without St. Peter’s in it? So let’s get this off to the right start. It’s the capital of the Catholic Church.

The Basilica Of The Sacred Heart Of Paris, Paris

Also
known as the Sacre-Coeur. After the Eiffel Tower, this is the highest point in Paris, so long as you’re standing on top of the dome. Sitting’s ok, too. Its construction was inspired by Bishop Fournier, who suggested that France had lost the Franco-Prussian war as a punishment for their moral decline.
