The Basilica of Our Lady of Tongre (French: Basilique de Notre Dame de Tongre) is a Roman Catholic parish church and minor basilica in Tongre-Notre-Dame, Chièvres, Belgium. The shrine is small, yet rich in historical significance.

The shrine is known for its medieval seated image of the Madonna and Child, along with its collection of various jewels donated by pilgrims, including Belgian royalty. The image was granted a canonical coronation in an apostolic brief by Pope Leo XIII on 8 September 1881, with the coronation carried out by Bishop Isidore-Joseph du Rousseaux.

The image is not the same as that of Our Lady of Tongeren, Virgin of Joy, that was canonically crowned by Leo XIII in 1890 at the Basilica of Our Lady, Tongeren.
