walsingham became a site of pilgrimage when a woman called
Richeldis de Faverches had a vision of the holy house of annunciation, in Nazareth (the holy house of annunciation was where the Virgin Mary grew up). Our lady appears to Richeldis de Faverches and tells her to build a replica of the holy house in Norfolk.

Walsingham is significant to Catholics as it is the site of the National Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham, a pilgrimage destination that honors the Virgin Mary. The town became a center of devotion in the 11th century after a noblewoman claimed to have received a vision of Mary, leading to the construction of a replica of the Holy House of Nazareth. Despite the English Reformation, devotion to Our Lady of Walsingham persisted, symbolizing hope and reconciliation for Catholics. Today, it continues to attract pilgrims seeking spiritual renewal and connection to Marian devotion.
