The Black Madonna of Reunion, also known as Our Lady of Deliverance, is a deeply venerated Marian figure on Reunion Island. Her history dates back to the 19th century, when missionaries brought a statue of the Virgin to Réunion to encourage the Catholic faith among the island's inhabitants, who often came from diverse cultures. She is seen as the protector of the poor and oppressed, particularly slaves and their descendants, and is a powerful symbol of faith, solidarity and protection for all those who seek her intercession.
