On the occasion of the ’Historia Domus’ Conference organized in Mátraverebély-Szentkút in October 2019 a Hungarian-Slovakian bilingual volume briefly resuming the history of the shrine was published and introduced. Meeting the requirements of MONUMENTIS project, its objective was to lay the groundwork for the research on the history of Szentkút to be carried out using modern methods and viewpoints as well as serious source criticism in order to reveal and correct the often erroneous information and notions that are widely spread in prior literature and public opinion. Before being able to write a comprehensive history of the shrine, editor Dániel Siptár and the conference speakers as co-authors composed the pre-conference book only as a summary that indicates problems evoking the necessary revision of our former knowledge for the expected researchers and those interested in the topic. The extensive and modern monograph is sought to be written based on the conference results in the near future.
