Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Calais
The building was built in October 1870 and is absolutely beautiful, especially at night because the shape of the edifice is stunning. The exterior of the church is extraordinary, presenting a beautiful tower, and inside it you can see a beautiful altar and precious icons, which are great relics for Calais. There is a little town area next to Sacred Heart, which has some lovely little traditional shops.
