History’s “Holy Marvels with Dennis Quaid” returns, and this time, the series explores the monumental structures built to protect the sacred. In “Sacred Strongholds,” airing Monday, April 21st at 10:03 PM ET, Quaid takes viewers on a global tour of imposing walls, daunting fortresses, and mystical rivers.
But not all strongholds were created equal. While some served as guardians of religious relics and spiritual sites, others, as the episode reveals, were built for far more sinister purposes. “Holy Marvels” examines the history and engineering behind these structures, from the practical to the mystical. What secrets do these walls hold? What stories do they tell about the people who built them and the beliefs they sought to protect?
With Quaid’s everyman charm as a guide, “Holy Marvels” continues to make history accessible and engaging. The series consistently finds the human stories within these ancient wonders, offering a fresh take on the past.
