The snakes of Holly Mary Markopoulo Kefalonia

As every year, this year too, on the day of the feast of the Saviour, the snakes of the Virgin Mary appear in Kefalonia.

Specifically, in the church of the Dormition in Markopoulo yesterday afternoon the first two snakes appeared (last year only one appeared).

Immediately the village bells rang joyfully.

The story of the snakes and the miraculous image...

Many years ago in the village of Markopoulo, the miracle associated with the icon of the Virgin Mary began. It seems that a tree that was engulfed in flames made the inhabitants believe that a fire had broken out in the forest.
