Loreto

How was the Holy House of the Virgin Mary transported from its original location in Nazareth, Palestine, to the town of Loreto in Italy? For many centuries, scholars from many disciplines have investigated the authenticity of the walls venerated in Loreto. According to legend and tradition, the house was carried by Angels in the year 1291, first to a town in Croatia and then three years later carried again across the Adriatic Sea to Loreto. This is known as the Miracle of the Translation. Modern academics have theorized that it was moved by Christian soldiers fleeing the Holy Land near the end of the Crusades. The entire journey of the Holy House was re-created for this documentary film, with the help of state-of-the-art 3D computer-generated graphics. The Holy House does not rest upon typical structural foundations, and its presence in Loreto remains a real enigma for contemporary architects. Is this sacred structure really the same House of Mary, transported all the way from Nazareth? This film gathers all of the available evidence to find the answers.
