Notre-Dame de la Daurade is a basilica in Toulouse, in the department of Haute-Garonne, France. Originally a temple dedicated to Apollo, it was established in 410 when Emperor Honorius allowed the conversion of pagan temples to Christianity. The current edifice was rebuilt during the 19th century and houses a shrine of a Black Madonna. The church is listed as a Monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture since 1963.
