Our Lady of the Well-Appeared is a miraculous Marian devotion born in 17th-century Ampuero, later declared patroness of Cantabria by Pope Pius X in 1903. Her feast blends deep Catholic devotion with rich Cantabrian cultural traditions.

Our Lady of Sorrows represents Mary’s deep suffering alongside Christ, especially during his Passion. Her feast is a major Catholic celebration and a national holiday in Slovakia, where she is honored as the country’s Patroness.
