Our Lady of Arcachon, the Star of the Sea is a venerated image of the Blessed Virgin Mary enshrined at the basilica of Arcachon, France. Originally from the 13th century, it was carved from a block of alabaster about twenty inches in height representing the Madonna and Child. The famed Marian image was granted a pontifical decree on 15 July 1870 by Pope Pius IX, and was canonically crowned on 16 July 1873 by Cardinal Ferdinand August Donnet. Its golden crown was donated by fishermen and sailors, to whom its original Marian cult and devotion was historically associated with.
