Product information "Madonna of Lourdes"
Every year, more than 2 million people make a pilgrimage to Lourdes in south-west France, drawn by the story of 14-year-old Bernadette Soubirous, to whom the Madonna appeared in 1858 and who witnessed the birth of the holy spring. The statue of the Madonna from the early 20th century forms the centre of the pilgrimage site. Woodcarving artists from Val Gardena carved the Madonna with roses at her feet by hand from maple wood, painted and partially gilded. Height 29 cm.
