No it's fiction.
The Da Vinci Code is a mystery/detective novel by American author Dan Brown, published in 2003 by Doubleday.
The novel is based on the controversial premise that there is a conspiracy within the Roman Catholic Church to cover up the true story of Jesus. The novel has helped generate popular interest in speculation concerning the Holy Grail legend and the role of Mary Magdalene in the history of Christianity. According to this premise, the Vatican knows it is living a lie, but continues to do so to keep itself in power.

It is a work of fiction loosely based on historical accounts. The author has modified certain actual events as a back drop to his story. The story is also based on a disputed historical interpretation of the Jesus movement and indeed, of the man himself. There is some evidence that supports Dan Brown's propositions but it is not conclusive or even widely accepted.
Having said that however, many historians agree that the Jesus of faith is different to the Jesus of history. We know very little about the Jesus of history.

No. It's a fictional story based on a theory. A lot of the "facts" named in the book are not accurate. It's an interesting story, though.
