The story of Knock began on the evening of the 21st of August 1879. Throughout the years, there are have been many milestones which have seen this small rural village grow to become an international pilgrimage destination.
The Apparition at Knock
On the evening of the 21st of August 1879, a heavenly Apparition occurred at the gable wall of the Parish Church when Our Lady appeared, in the company of St. Joseph and St. John the Evangelist. Unique to the Knock Apparition was the presence of the Eucharistic Lamb in front of a Cross, standing upon an altar and surrounded by angels.
The Apparition lasted for about two hours and 15 official witnesses gave their testimonies to a Commission of Enquiry in October of that year.
