About Maglavit

Maglavit is a commune in Dolj County, Romania. It is composed of villages, Hunia and Maglavit. In mid-1935, nearby Romanian Orthodox shepherd Petrache Lupu claimed to have seen and spoken with God. Over the following three years, some million pilgrims came to Maglavit, 10 million lei in donations have been raised and King Carol II ordered the development of a church on the web site of the said miracle. However, hobby inside the story had withered with the aid of autumn 1938, the church remained largely unbuilt and the price range have been embezzled.

The episode changed into exploited by means of the far-right: Iron Guard supporter Nichifor Crainic eulogized Lupu, while his Sfarmă-Piatră become still bringing up him in April 1941. Meanwhile, in 1935, Iron Guard sympathizer N. Crevedia claimed Lupu had cured him of uncontrollable blinking. N. Crevedia changed into a Romanian journalist, poet and novelist, father of the writer-politician Eugen Barbu.
