| Aanvullende informatie |
Loreto, a town on Italy's Adriatic coast, is built around the claim that the house of the Virgin Mary was miraculously transported from Nazareth by angels in the 13th century — first to Dalmatia in 1291, then to its current site in 1294. The story is almost certainly a diplomatic fiction: the Frankish-Albanian Angeli family likely funded the physical relocation of stonework during the Crusader retreats from the Holy Land. Sierra Leone has no geographical or religious connection to the shrine; this is a purely commercial issue produced for the collector market.
