An exceptional Marian shrine where the Blessed Virgin is close to pilgrims! You must visit at least once in your life.

This rock grotto, then still outside the village, was the spot where Our Lady appeared to 14-year-old Bernadette Soubirous in 1858. Bernadette later became a nun and died at the age of just 35. On December 8, 1933 (the Feast of the Immaculate Conception), she was canonized by Pope Pius XI.

This church in the internationally important Marian pilgrimage site of Lourdes is not simply dedicated to the Mother of God; it often has additional titles dedicating it to a church feast such as her "Immaculate Conception," Nativity, or Assumption. The patronage chosen for this basilica, however, bears a special suffix: the Rosary. This refers to a prayer that was very popular in popular piety in earlier times and is still practiced today in many parishes and private households (at least among the older generation). It is particularly popular on foot pilgrimages, for example, because the repetition of the individual decades by the prayer leader and the response of the worshippers easily creates a meditative atmosphere. According to ancient tradition, there were three versions that were meditated on while praying: + the Joyful Mysteries + the Sorrowful Mysteries + the Glorious Mysteries Pope John Paul II (Karol Wojtyla) added + the Luminous Mysteries.

In the city—outside the church district—everything that has any connection to the Marian apparition, the "miraculous water," or the basilicas is for sale. While it's somewhat strange on the one hand, it's also quite moving to see what faith can trigger in some people...

A lavishly decorated basilica with much pomp and circumstance... I remembered a saying from my former religion teacher: For Catholics, the church is the house of God and therefore so lavishly decorated – for Protestants, the church is the house of the community, where God's word is heard...

A great experience for everyone, when you see the believers pilgrimage to the grotto - fascinating

Pilgrims can either drink or bathe in the water that bubbles from a spring in the grotto
