About this listen

For this episode, we will explore The Virgin of Juncal. This Black Madonna who has since been "restored" is the oldest Marian image in Gipuzkoa and probably in the entire Basque Country. Her shrine is in Irun, and aptly called The Church of Our Lady of Juncal or Iglesia Nuestra Señora del Juncal. The church owes its name to the discovery of a carved image of the Virgin in the reeds growing along the banks of the estuary in around the year 1400.
