About Sanctuary of Fátima
The Sanctuary of Fátima, or Shrine of Fátima, also known as Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fátima, is a group of Catholic Church religious buildings and structures located in Cova da Iria, in the civil parish and city of Fátima, in the municipality of Ourém, in Portugal. The sanctuary is dedicated to the 1917 Marian apparitions of Our Lady of Fátima. In addition to the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, the shrine consists of the Chapel of the Lausperene, a great oak tree (near which the 1917 Marian apparitions occurred), a monument to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Chapel of the Apparitions, where three children, Lúcia Santos and her cousins, Jacinta and Francisco Marto, said they were first visited by the Virgin Mary. In addition, several other structures and monuments were built in the intervening years to commemorate the events.
