editGerman Virgin Mary
editI remember from a Youtube video I saw long ago that somewhere in German-occupied Poland, probably during WWI, there was a Marian apparition in which the Virgin Mary spoke in German but the witnesses could not understand her because they only spoke Polish. I'm trying to find if this is a real story but I'm not findind anything. --82.58.29.125 (talk) 02:59, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
- You may be thinking of Gietrzwałd#Marian_Apparitions. That is the closest "real story" at the Most Complete List of Marian Apparitions.--Shantavira|feed me 09:11, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
- It looks a lot like the case I was searching. But I distinctly remember the fact that initially the Virgin Mary spoke in German and only later, after no one undestood her, started to speak Polish. --82.58.29.125 (talk) 13:02, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
