Why pilgrims come
Discover what makes Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption on Chapter Hill a place of pilgrimage
Győr's cathedral forms a rare threefold pilgrimage site: the herm reliquary of St. Ladislaus, the venerated Weeping Virgin image, and the tomb of Blessed Bishop Vilmos Apor, killed in 1945 while protecting women and girls.
Build the visit around three exact sacred relationships: Ladislaus's relic, the Marian image, and Apor's tomb.
