Sr. Anne Catherine, who had never left Germany-- nor even her small region of Germany-- described her vision regarding the precise location in what is now Turkey to which John the Evangelist had taken the Virgin Mary when Jerusalem became to dangerous for them to remain without being martyred. She described a vision of such detail that she was able to describe the road leaving the city of Ephesus as it curved up a hillside, then crossed a path leading further up to a plateau, where the small house was located. The vision was recorded and published by German poet and author Clemens Brentano, and the site described by Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, atop a high hill a few kilometers outside Ephesus (near modern Selçuk, Turkey) was located by French priest Abbé Julien Gouney, who utilized the text as a guide in 1881, and then again by two Lazarist missionaries, Father Poulin and Father Jung, from Smyrna, who rediscovered the building on July 29, 1891, again using the description from Blessed Anne Catherine's vision as their guide.At the site was found the ruins of a small, rectangular building on the hillside above a well. The building had long been venerated by an isolated rural community descended from Christians in Ephesus; there had been strong anti-Christian sentiments in Ephesus at the time of the early Church-- St. Paul, when he preached at the forum, was drowned out by crowds shouting "Great is Artemis of Ephesus!"-- so there were good reasons for St. John having housed the Virgin Mary well outside the city, and for the Christian community to have relocated to the rural countryside later as well, and to have remained there under the Muslims.The House of the Virgin has been rebuilt at the site (the remaining parts of the original House were integrated into the building, marked off with a red line), and the House is an important shrine for Roman Catholics and for Muslims as well. The House of the Virgin Mary is located a few miles from the early 5th Century Cathedral of St. Mary the Virgin, the first church to bear the Virgin Mary's name and site of the Council of Ephesus, the third Ecumenical council in 431, during which the title of Theotokos for the Mother of Christ was declared Orthodox. The choice to hold the Council at Ephesus in 431 AD is believed by many to further support the legitimacy of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich's vision.The Shrine has been visited by three Popes, Paul VI, John Paul II, and Benedict XVI. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful *by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2022* A wonderful account of Mary’s life ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All the answers I had been looking for *by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2014* Even after 12 years of Catholic education, I had hundreds of questions about the life of the Blessed Virgin. No nun or priest had any answers for me. Then, my current priest mentioned Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich to me. After researching her, I downloaded "The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary." How wonderful to have found the Venerable Sister Emmerich! Her mystic abilities are simply amazing. In her book on the Blessed Virgin Mary, I found ALL the information for which I had been searching! The detailed descriptions are almost photographic. This is the book that led to the finding of the Blessed Virgin's last home, just outside of Ephesus, Turkey, built for her by St. John. I have visited this shrine on four separate occasions, including last summer, when I was able to attend Mass at the house. Sister Emmerich's detailed "word paintings" are extremely vivid - sometimes almost too much so, as in her description of Christ's Passion, from her "The Life of Our Lord Jesus Christ," which I also read, and which was the basis of Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ." In fact, Blessed Sister Emmerich's descriptive powers are so profound that I bought all her books for my Kindle app on my iPad AND also in a set in soft cover! Her knowledge is quite unique, and I don't wonder at her having been beatified by the Catholic church. Her books are the most powerful that I have ever read!!! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/200401501-the-life-of-the-blessed-virgin-mary-paperback-box-set](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/200401501-the-life-of-the-blessed-virgin-mary-paperback-box-set) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-29*
