The Schoenstatt Shrine is a Catholic shrine and part of the Apostolic movement founded by Josef Kentenich in Germany in 1914, a place where the Virgin Mary is invited for protection and influence.
Father Josef Kentenich was the spiritual director at a junior seminary of the Pallottine fathers preparing missionaries for Africa. In April 1914 a Marian sodality was formed at the seminary, and the superior offered the sodality the Chapel of St. Michael, near the school. Father Kentenich was inspired by the work of Bartolo Longo in creating the Shrine to Our Lady of the Rosary off Pompei, and wished to create a shrine to Mary at Schoenstatt.
