    The Reconquista or the reconquest of al-Andalus was the series of military campaigns that Christian kingdoms waged against the Muslim kingdoms following the Umayyad conquest of Hispania.

    Ferdinand and Isabella completed the Reconquista with a war against the Emirate of Granada that started in 1482 and ended with Granada's surrender on 2 January 1492.

    This opened the way for Catholic spain and her explorers to spread the Catholic faith to the "New World".

    The Shrine is blessed to offer its pilgrims the opportunity to learn and venerate the first-class relics of recently beatified Ulma family. Killed during the Nazi occupation of Poland for sheltering Jews, Józef, Wiktoria, and their seven children—including the first unborn baby to be beatified—bear witness of the fact that, as John Paul II beautifully summarized, “salvation passes by way of the family.” The new temporary exhibit weaves together the story of the Ulma family with Saint John Paul II’s teachings on the role of the family as “active agent for peace.” The exhibit will be available starting January 12.

    Learn more about the Ulma Family here.
