Gua Maria Kerep, Catholic pilgrimage cave in Ambarawa, Indonesia.
Gua Maria Kerep is a natural limestone cave with religious statues and several prayer areas located in Ambarawa. The interior is arranged to allow visitors to move through different chambers for personal reflection and worship.
The cave was transformed into a Catholic shrine during the 20th century. This conversion made it an important destination for Indonesian Catholics seeking spiritual experience.
The cave serves as a gathering place where Catholic communities come together for prayer and religious ceremonies throughout the year. It holds deep meaning for pilgrims who view it as a center of spiritual practice.
The cave is open daily and can be explored at your own pace throughout the day. The information center at the site can answer questions and provide guidance for your visit.
The cave contains a natural spring with water that flows continuously throughout the year. Pilgrims often collect this water in bottles, believing it holds special properties.
