Why pilgrims come
A sacred place worth the journey.
A state memorial museum on the site of the former Sacred Heart Catholic church where Gonxhe Bojaxhiu was baptized. The house displays a documented second-class relic—her white sari—while its chapel hosts Catholic services; the building is not her childhood home and remains a museum rather than a Catholic-run shrine.
