The Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham

The Shrine Church is situated in beautiful grounds close to the centre of the medieval village of Little Walsingham.

 

Built in the twentieth century the Shrine Church is where the Holy House is located - a replica of the home in Nazareth of Joseph, Mary and Jesus (the Holy Family) - and where the Guardians of the Shrine have their stalls.

 

Within the Holy House is the image of Our Lady of Walsingham, carved in 1922 and copied from the seal of the medieval Priory which was suppressed in 1538.
