EACH YEAR, MILLIONS
VISIT THE GROTTOS
Each year, millions of pilgrims visit the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes to participate in processions, pray, attend Mass, and seek healing by bathing in the baths fed by the spring in the Grotto.
VISITORS COME FOR THE
HOLY WATER
Pilgrims often collect and bottle water from the Grotto, treasuring it as holy water. This practice stems from the belief in the water's healing properties, a belief reinforced by numerous testimonies of miraculous cures.
CAN I SEE THE WATER?
Yes! On the side of each charm is a small "water well".
In this well, we place the water from Lourdes, France and then seal with a clear coat of epoxy to prevent leaks and evaporation.
If you move the charm around, you should see a small air bubble within the water.
Each charm is done by hand and some variation is expected, making each piece slightly unique.
