The Eucharistic Miracle of Amsterdam

March 12th, 1345 A.D. & May 24th, 1452


In Amsterdam, Netherlands, a fisherman named Ysbrand Dommer, summoned a priest to his home to administer Holy Communion and the last rites of the Church, believing he was nearing the end of his life. Shortly after the priest had left, Ysbrand began coughing violently, and vomited into a small basin, whose contents were thrown into the flames of the fireplace. The next day, Ysbrand was completely restored to health. One of the maids that was caring for him, while tending to the fire, noticed an intact Host with light emanating from it. The Host was recovered and brought to the parish priest, who placed it in the tabernacle. The following morning, the priest discovered that the Host was missing, and it was soon discovered again at Ysbrand's home. The priest returned to Ysbrand's home on three occasions to recover the Host that had been miraculously been re-appearing there, before it was decided that Ysbrand's home would be turned into a chapel.


Over a century later, the chapel was destroyed by a fire, but the monstrance containing the miraculous Host remained intact.
