fátima’s sanctuary & the child seers homes

religion & patrimony

Fatima is one of the most significant Catholic pilgrimage places in the world. Dedicated to the Virgin Mary, it‘s a worship site which attracts scores of pilgrims and tourists from all over the world. Its importance arises from the apparitions of Our Lady of Rosary to a group of children, one hundred years ago, carrying a message of hope during troublesome and ominous times.

Aljustrel, the hamlet where the three shepherd children seers lived has a local museum built in the home where they lived. Here you will have a glimpse of their austere way of life at the time of the apparitions, in the early 20th century.

This day visit is designed in a welcoming and mindful way to give you all the time you need to enjoy this sacred place and embrace the Sanctuary’s tranquillity and spirituality. You can attend mass if you wish, in the apparitions chapel or the new cathedral, or even visit the impressive wax museum.
