The community of Loretto itself has fewer than 500 inhabitants, but an estimated 100,000 pilgrims are counted here each year. The biggest pilgrimage days are the "Great Women's Day" (Assumption of Mary) on August 15th, when between 15,000 and 20,000 people come to Loretto, the Feast of the Nativity of Mary on September 8th, and the "Croatian Sunday", the pilgrimage of the Burgenland Croats, on the third Sunday in September. Many of the pilgrims still come on foot today. It seems that I picked a special day for my visit today. I was completely alone, not a soul to be seen.

On August 15, 2023, the Great Kirtag will be held in Loretto again this year, as every year for the 'Assumption of Mary' pilgrimage. On this day, up to 25,000 people from near and far populate the small community at the foot of the Leitha Mountains in the district of Eisenstadt-Umwelt in Burgenland.

Impressive, should definitely be seen when you are around.

March 27, 2021 - The Sulzberg cave, better known under the name "Teufelsloch", can be found in an abandoned quarry south of Loretto near the Esterhàzy forest edge settlement. The local population of Stotzingen hid here in the devil's hole during the Russian occupation.
