Wikipedia's articles on the National Basilica Sanctuary of the Charity del Cobre and on Our Lady of Charity, read directly for this pass, covering the shrine's 1926 building, its 1977 elevation to basilica status, and the Santeria identification of the image with the orisha Ochun.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Reliability tier 3: a community-edited tertiary reference, not peer-reviewed, used here only for settled facts (the 1926 building, the 1977 basilica elevation, the Ochun identification), corroborated against independent Catholic-press and news reporting read alongside it. NotesCited for the basilica's construction and elevation dates, its standing as Cuba's national shrine, and the Ochun syncretism among Santeria practitioners.
