Many Christians were taken prisoner during a battle in the town of Atocha, Spain during the 13th century. The prisoners were kept without food or water and the villagers prayed for their protection. At the prison camp a small child, dressed like a pilgrim, appeared gave food and water to all the prisoners. The apparition was believed to be the Christ Child. Since that time, Niño de Atocha (also called the Child of Atocha or Infant of Atocha) has been called upon in times of need for prisoners, children, and pilgrims.
