The Basilica of the Blessed Sacrament, Saint Bartholomew's Basilica or Basilica of Meerssen is a Roman Catholic church building in Meerssen in Dutch Limburg. The parish church is dedicated to the Blessed Sacrament and to the Apostle Bartholomew and was elevated to basilica minor by Pope Pius XI on June 16, 1938.

During work on the church of Meerssen, which according to tradition, was hit by a serious fire in 1465, possibly due to war. The Blessed Sacrament was miraculously preserved.
