8,000 Witnesses Swear They Saw It Come to Life
Cantabria, Spain, 1919. Inside the small Church of San Pedro, a young girl approaches a priest and whispers a sentence he will never forget: “Father, Christ closed His eyes.”
In the days that follow, other people begin reporting the same thing. The large wooden crucifix known as the Christ of the Agony allegedly moved its eyes and mouth, changed expression and, at certain moments, appeared to show the signs of a living body.
The news spreads quickly, and Limpias becomes one of the most visited pilgrimage destinations in Europe.
Those who claim to have witnessed the events include not only believers, but also doctors, lawyers, military officers and men who had come specifically to expose what they believed was a deception.
Over the years, approximately 8,000 testimonies were collected. According to the historical sources, 2,500 of them were given under oath. Most of those documents, however, were later lost during the Spanish Civil War.
What really happened inside the church in Limpias?
Was it autosuggestion, an unusual effect of the light, or something we are still unable to explain?
In this video, we reconstruct the story of the Christ of Limpias through contemporary accounts, witness testimonies and the surviving documents.
