Number of visitors.
    Moved by the intense devotion to Christ, the hermits of Mount Carmel looked to the Virgin Mary as the model who lived out this devotion to the fullest. They placed themselves under her protection and built a chapel in her honor. Soon they became known as the "hermits of St. Mary of Mount Carmel."
