The Madonnina of Lourdes, venerated as Mother of all children and comfort for the faithful, originates from the Marian apparitions that took place in 1858 to Bernadette Soubirous, a young peasant girl from Lourdes, in France. The Virgin Mary appeared to her eighteen times in the grotto of Massabielle, introducing herself as the Immaculate Conception. These apparitions led to the discovery of a spring of water, considered miraculous, which still attracts millions of pilgrims today. Lourdes has become one of the most important Marian shrines in the world, a symbol of hope, healing and faith. Devotion to Our Lady of Lourdes has spread globally, representing a beacon of spirituality and a point of reference for those seeking consolation and divine intercession. The wooden statue from Val Gardena, with its modern sculpture, embodies this profound veneration, bringing the grace and protection of Our Lady of Lourdes into homes.
