National Shrine of the North American Martyrs

Glen, United States

The National Shrine of the North American Martyrs, also known as the Shrine of Our Lady of Martyrs, is a Roman Catholic shrine in Auriesville, New York dedicated to the three Jesuit missionaries who were martyred at the Mohawk Indian village of Ossernenon in 1642 and 1646. While it is physically located within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany, it is owned and operated independently by the Friends of Our Lady of Martyrs Shrine, Inc. The original church was built in 1884. For over 130 years the Jesuits owned and directed the shrine. On March 22, 2017, the Jesuits transferred the deed of the main campus to the Friends.
