Velankanni Matha Shrine Museum - Miracles Unfold Here!

The history of the Velankanni Matha Shrine Museum is intertwined with the history of the Basilica itself. The shrine's origins trace back to the 16th century, with the reported apparitions of the Virgin Mary to a shepherd boy and a crippled boy. As the shrine grew in popularity, devotees began offering tokens of gratitude for answered prayers and miraculous healings. These offerings gradually formed the basis of the museum's collection. The museum was formally established to preserve and display these artifacts, providing visitors with a tangible connection to the shrine's rich history and the unwavering faith of its devotees. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of belief and the countless blessings attributed to Our Lady of Good Health.
