In Medugorje you will be able to visit St. James’ Church, Apparition Hill, Statue of the Queen of Peace, and White Cross Hill.
Two-towered St. James’ Church is the heart of the Roman Catholic parish with the famous Resurrected Saviour statue right behind the Church.
Apparition Hill is the very spot where Our Lady appeared to those six children in 1981. A rocky path leads to the top of the hill with the fifteen bronze reliefs alongside, that depict the Joyful, the Sorrowful, and the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary.
The Blue Cross stands at the base of Apparition Hill and marks the spot where Our Lady appeared.
