Description Basílica de la Dorada, Toulouse, Francia, 2023-01-07, DD 02-04 HDR.jpg |
English:
Basilica of
Our Lady of the Daurade
,
Toulouse
, France. The first church in this location was established in 410 when
Emperor Honorius
allowed the conversion of pagan temples to Christianity. The original building of Notre-Dame de la Daurade was a temple dedicated to
Apollo
. During the 5th or 6th century another church was erected, decorated with golden mosaics; the current name derives from the antique name, (“Deaurata”, gold). It became a
Benedictine
monastery during the 9th century. After a period of decline starting in the 15th century, the basilica was demolished in 1761 to make way for the construction of Toulouse's riverside quays. The buildings were restored and a new church built, but the monastery was closed during the
French Revolution
, becoming a tobacco factory. The basilica had housed the shrine of a
Black Madonna
. The original icon was stolen in the fifteenth century, and its first replacement was burned by Revolutionaries in 1799 on the
Place du Capitole
. The icon presented today is an 1807 copy of the fifteenth century Madonna. Blackened by the hosts of candles, the second Madonna has been known since the sixteenth century as Notre Dame La Noire. The current edifice was built during the 19th century.
