The Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament is a world-renowned Catholic pilgrimage site located on a serene 400-acre property in Hanceville, Alabama. Modeled after the 13th-century Basilica of St. Francis in Assisi, Italy, the Romanesque-Gothic complex was envisioned and built by Mother Angelica, the beloved foundress of the Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN). It serves as a peaceful sanctuary for prayer and reflection and is the permanent resting place of Mother Angelica.
