The National Shrine Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes, a Catholic national shrine devoted to Our Blessed Mother Mary, is a place of worship, pilgrimage, evangelization and reconciliation.
This beautiful mountain shrine features one of the oldest American replicas of the Lourdes shrine in France, built about two decades after the apparition of Mary at Lourdes in 1858, and attracts hundreds of thousands of pilgrims each year from all over the world. It offers the occasion for a deepening conversion, a step forward in the journey to God, with Mary as the model for that journey. Hours 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily (gates close at 5 p.m.). Mass Saturday and Sunday 12 p.m. and during Special Times Reconciliation Saturday and Sunday 11 a.m. Shuttle Transportation is available from the parking lot to the Miller Family Visitors Center. Call (301) 447-5318 for reservations. *St. Bernadette's Shoppe and the Grotto Offices will close early (at 12 noon) on Thursday, July 27. The restrooms and grounds will remain open until 5 p.m.* |
