Please Support Knock Shrine

Knock Shrine depends on the generosity of our parishioners, friends and patrons. It is through your generous donations that we aim to preserve this sacred and special Shrine for future generations of pilgrims.

Over the past 10 years, we have made many improvements and investments in the infrastructure of our chapels and grounds. The historic Parish Church, which celebrates its bicentenary in 2028 has been sensitively conserved for future generations. Knock Basilica was constructed in 1976 and has been extensively modernised to provide a warm and welcoming spiritual space for our pilgrims.

We depend on your goodwill and generosity as we seek to maintain and improve the services that we offer to all those who visit Knock Shrine.
