How Did the Virgin Mary's House from Nazareth End up in Loreto, Italy? | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

It's a tiny brick house with a large legacy. It is believed the Blessed Virgin Mary was raised there and received the annunciation there, in Nazareth. So, how did it get to Italy, where the devotion to the holy house began? For centuries, numerous artistic depictions fueled the belief that angels miraculously carried the holy house from Nazareth to Loreto in 1294, as is attested by numerous artistic depictions. Others hold that the holy house was brought to Italy at the end of the Crusades, like many other relics from the Holy Land. EWTN Vatican Journalist Magdalena Wolinska-Riedi has some of the answers. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
