HRVATSKO LURDSKO SVETIŠTE VEPRIC

Hrvatsko lurdsko svetište VEPRIC osnovao je 1908.g. biskup dr. Juraj Carić (1867-1921), koji je i pokopan u svetištu. Prirodna špilja i cijeli krajolik s brežuljcima, raslinjem i potokom među njima živo podsjeća na Lurd, gdje se je Bl.Dj.Marija godine 1858. ukazala 18 puta Bernardici Soubirous. U ovom središtu podignuta je kapela sa sakristijom, oltar na trgu, ispovjedaonice, postaje križnog puta, dom za duhovne vježbe, staze za procesije. Podignutra je i nova kuća za potrebe svetišta i duhovne vježbe. Zbog svoje prirodne ljepote i tišine ovo je svetište veoma posjećeno kroz cijelu godinu, a glavni su hodočasnički dani: 11.II, 25.III, 15. VIII, 7. i 8 IX.

CROATIAN LOURDES SHRINE VEPRIC

VEPRIC, a Croatian sanctuary dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes was founded in 1908 by Bishop dr. Juraj Carić (1867-1921), who himself was burried on the premises of the sanctuary. The natural cave as well as the surrounding landscape formed by hills and the creek running in the valley, greatly reminds pilgrims of the famous sanctuary of Lourdes in France, where Our Lady appeared 18 times to Bernadette Soubirous in 1858. On the sanctuary, a chapel and a sacristy with outside altar, as well as several confessionals, a Way of the Cross, a house for retreats and paths for processions have the purposes of the sanctuary. Because of its natural beauty and its peaceful environment, this sanctuary is visited by a great number of pilgrims, through the year. The most important dates for pilgrimages are: February 11th, March 25th, August 15th, September 7-8th..
