Loretto Chapel

The Loretto Chapel in Clervaux is a 18th century baroque jewel that fascinates visitors with its ornate architecture.

The Loretto Chapel in Clervaux is a religious jewel nestled in the picturesque Luxembourg countryside. The chapel was built in the 18th century and has attracted pilgrims and visitors ever since.

Its history goes back deep into the past. The chapel was originally built as a place of devotion and pilgrimage to promote devotion to the Virgin Mary. Its name "Loretto" refers to the Italian place of pilgrimage Loreto, which stands for the tradition of the house of the Holy Family.

Inside, visitors will find a rich array of religious artworks, paintings and sculptures that emphasise the spiritual significance of the place.
