Basilica della Santa Casa

The Basilica della Santa Casa is a Marian shrine in Loreto, in the Marches, Italy. The shrine is widely known for preserving the house of the Holy Family. Pious legends claim the same house was supernaturally flown over by angelic beings from Nazareth to Tersatto, then to Recanati, before arriving at the current site. The shrine is designated a basilica by the privilege of immemorial status.
