The Tomb of the Virgin Mary: The Mystery Revealed After 1900 Years
In the year 451, Emperor Marcian ordered the body of the Virgin Mary to be brought to Constantinople for the new basilica he was building with Empress Pulcheria. The Bishop of Jerusalem returned with an answer no one expected: the tomb was empty. Only the folded burial shroud remained.
Since then, for nearly two thousand years, no one has ever found the relics of Mary’s body — while every other saint in Christendom left behind bones, a skull, a known tomb. A silence historians still struggle to explain.
In this video, we retrace the story of the Tomb of the Virgin at the foot of the Mount of Olives, the ancient account of the Dormition, the apparition to Saint Thomas, and the reason why the Church waited until November 1st, 1950 — when Pope Pius XII proclaimed the dogma of the Assumption ex cathedra — to make official what the faithful had believed for centuries.
🕯️ From August 6th to 14th, join us for the Novena of the Assumption: a free journey of prayer and reflection, day by day, until August 15th. You’ll find it on our website:
