fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapelle_Notre_Dame_de_la_M%C3%A9da... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapel_of_Our_Lady_of_the_Miraculou... "In 1830 Saint Catherine Labouré, then 24, received three visits from the Blessed Virgin Mary, "in flesh and bones," she will say, to request the creation of a medal with the following invocation: "O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee." From May 1832 onwards the medal, which is extraordinarily disseminated and is said to convert, protect and perform miracles, is called miraculous by the faithful."
