architect: Pierre El-Khoury with the assistance of Noel Aboulhamad
"Basilica of "Our Lady of Harissa," a monumental and daring structure that punctuates the sky atop the peak of the majestic mountain range overlooking Jounieh bay.
The shape of the basilica is an architectural crossing between a Lebanese cedar and an ancient Phoenician ship. It is 115 meters long, 67 meters wide and a height of 110 meters.
The building stands at the top of a 500-meter high mountain that overlooks the bay and town of Jounieh.
