Cathédrale Sacré-Coeur
Set on the edge of the Parc de la Ligue Arable, Casablanca’s largest park, this is one of several fine Christian places of worship that have survived since the end of the days of the French protectorate in 1956. Though European in style, its ornate edifice employs many Moroccan motifs, but sadly its interior has been neglected as it is no longer used as a place of worship. It’s currently under heavy construction, but can viewed from the outside. Another Christian site worth visiting is the still-active Church of Notre Dame of Lourdes, with its outstanding stained glass, on Avenue Zerktouni, by the Ronde de L’Europe roundabout.
