Country : Portugal
Year :
Our Lady of the Murdered or of the Slain is near Lorban, a Cistercian Monastery in Portugal. It is said that this image was brought from Heaven to the Abbot John, uncle of King Afonso, and that it restored to life several persons who had been murdered.
In memory of the miracle, the restored had from that time a red mark on their throats, like that which at present is seen on the throat of the image.
