As we celebrate the Jubilee Year, the theme ‘Pilgrims of Hope’ is indeed a fitting one for Ireland’s International Eucharistic and Marian Shrine. Knock has always been a place of hope and consolation. The message of hope of the Knock Apparition continues to reveal itself every day, through the pilgrims who are drawn to this unique place. The first pilgrims began to visit Knock in the weeks following the Apparition in 1879. By their continuing presence at Knock Shrine, today’s pilgrims follow in

Thank God for a beautiful day for the National Adoration pilgrimage, the first pilgrimage of the season. It is lovely to see so many people enjoying the peaceful surroundings here at the Shrine and we look forward to welcoming all of our pilgrimages during this special Jubilee Year. | Knock Shrine
