The Western version of Tin Hau Temple ~ Marseille’s must-see attraction “Notre Dame de Garde Cathedral”

# Sign up as a hotel trial sleeper in June A must-see attraction in Marseille is the "Notre Dame de la Garde" built in the 13th century, which is also nicknamed "la Bonne Mère" by the Marseilles. It stands tall on the Lagarde hill in the geographical center of Marseille, as if it is always overlooking and watching over Marseille and the ships and sailors entering and leaving the ports. Conceptually it is similar to Tin Hau Temple. A pilgrimage site with a history of more than 800 years, the cumulative height of Notre Dame’s buildings is approximately 157 meters. It was renovated in the 15th century. It was originally a small church in 1214. It was demolished and rebuilt in 1853 with a more magnificent domed church. The reason why it was renovated at that time was because of the emergence of the cholera epidemic and the need for a building that was spacious enough to accommodate the increasing number of people who came to make pilgrimages to seek blessings. In the modern era, it was rebuilt in 2001, and the historical relics from its birth to the present are witnesses.
