Loreto (Loreta)
Church around the corner
The Baroque Church of the Nativity, set within a complex of cloisters and chapels, forms part of this revered Marian pilgrimage site. A replica of the Holy House adds to the sacred atmosphere. The tower houses a 27-bell carillon that melodiously plays the Loretan Marian song every hour between 10 am and 5 pm. The Loreto treasure, showcased here, features a coveted assortment of liturgical items and votive offerings dating from the 16th to 18th centuries. Notably, the collection includes the famed "Prague Sun", a mesmerizing monstrance adorned with an astonishing 6,222 diamonds.
