On August 15, 2023, the Great Kirtag will be held in Loretto again this year, as every year for the 'Assumption of Mary' pilgrimage. On this day, up to 25,000 people from near and far populate the small community at the foot of the Leitha Mountains in the district of Eisenstadt-Umwelt in Burgenland.

Hiking

The visit today was a special highlight - I was able to visit the grounds and the basilica in peace all by myself - so the tip is over here during the week.

The current pilgrimage church was consecrated in 1707 after previous buildings were destroyed by the Turks twice (1529 and 1683). The towers date from 1740 and originally had onion helmets. The monastery was abolished in 1787 (Josef II) and has been inhabited by monks again since 1926.
The name Loretto comes from the replica of the pilgrimage shrine of Loreto near Ancona.
