Overview

The Blessed Virgin Mary appeared 33 times to five children in the garden of a convent school in Beauraing, Belgium, identifying herself as 'the Immaculate Virgin' and revealing a golden heart.

History

Between November 29, 1932, and January 3, 1933, five children between the ages of 9 and 15 saw the Blessed Virgin 33 times above a hawthorn tree in the garden of the Sisters of Christian Doctrine convent school. The apparitions drew increasing crowds, with up to 35,000 people present for the final apparition. Bishop Heylen of Namur authorized devotion in 1943, and the apparitions were formally approved in 1949.
