Stop At: Meryemana (The virgin mary's house), Selcuk, Izmir Province, Turkish Aegean Coast
It is known that the Virgin Mary came to Ephesus and lived here for some time. Whether or not she died in Ephesus was not known until Anne Catherine Emmerichs vision. The stigmatized German nun who had never been to Ephesus had a vision of the House of the Virgin Mary and described it in detail to the German writer Clemens Brentano who later published a book about it. Catherine Emmerich died in 1884. In 1891 Paul, Superior of the Lazarists from Izmir read about her vision and found a little building which corresponded with Emmerichs descriptions. Archeological evidence showed that the little house was from the 6C AD but that the foundations were from the 1C AD.
