Our Lady of Vetrana
Castellana Grotte, Italy (1691)
In Castellana, a small town located on the side of a basin in the south-east of Murge, there was a small chapel with a miraculous fresco of the Mother of God credited with freeing the region of the plague in the seventeenth century.
Since then she has been called “the Ventrana”. S ince the end of the plague, the shrine has become a destination for the faithful and pilgrims who continually come to venerate the sacred image.
The miracles of the Virgin Vetrana obtained from her Divine Son are numerous throughout the ages.
