Miracles

The Infant Jesus began to bless the monastery, the local people, and also the entire city of Prague. He was credited with miraculous healing and also amongst other things, with saving Prague during the Swedish siege in 1639. At that time the statue was located in the choir where the believers could not worship it publicly.

Infant Jesus in the St. Cross Chapel

In 1641 the statue was moved to a chapel in the church, on the left behind the entrance (today the St. Cross Chapel). In 1651 the statue was carried in processions to Prague churches.

A Worthy Altar Was Built

In 1776 a worthy altar was built for the statue. Both walls of the alcove are covered with plates of thanks for intercessions.
