Limerick Diocesan pilgrimage: Saturday, July 22nd 2023

This Saturday, we welcome the Diocese of Limerick for their pilgrimage to Knock Shrine. Limerick has a long association with the Shrine, dating back as far as 1880.

In March of that year, just months after the Apparition,  a group of 50 pilgrims made their way  to Tuam in County Galway by train and then onwards to the village of Knock in nine horse-drawn, open side cars.
