The House of the Virgin Mary, located near Ephesus, is a revered Christian pilgrimage site, believed to be where the Virgin Mary spent her final days and was assumed into heaven. According to tradition, Apostle John brought Mary to Ephesus after the Resurrection of Christ, seeking refuge following the martyrdom of James and other apostles.

Built on the foundation of her home, the church has been affirmed by visits from three popes: Pope Paul VI in 1967, Pope John Paul II in 1979, and Pope Benedict XVI in 2006. Their gifts to the shrine, displayed as symbols of its sacred importance, underscore its spiritual and historical significance. This tranquil site continues to inspire faith and devotion, offering a profound connection to Christian history and the life of the Virgin Mary.
