SANTA CASA - FILIPPO SORCINELLI

SANTA CASA - FILIPPO SORCINELLI

Inspired by the drawers of the sacristy of the Basilica of Loreto.

The incomparable scent of candles and their smoke emanates from the Santa Casa di Loreto, in the Marche region, at Filippo.

The Holy House is one of the main places of veneration of Mary and one of the most important and most visited Marian shrines of the Catholic Church. It is composed of three walls which, according to an ancient and recognized tradition, would constitute the part located in front of the grotto of Nazareth where the Annunciation took place, and where the Virgin Mary was born and lived. An ancient tradition holds that the translation of the Holy House from Nazareth to Loreto was the work of angels.
