e/Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary

Information
has gloss	eng: The Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary is celebrated on October 7 on the Roman Catholic calendar of saints. Technically this day has the liturgical rank of Memorial. Originally observed as the Feast of Our Lady of Victory, its date was chosen to commemorate the European victory at the third naval Battle of Lepanto in 1571. This battle marked the high point of Turkish (Muslim) advance on European soil with the Balkans and the regions west and north of the Black Sea returning to Western (Christian) hands in the succeeding centuries. This victory, after two earlier defeats at the same location, was attributed to Our Lady of the Rosary as special processions were made on that same day in Rome for the sake of this crucial victory.
