About this experience
Discover our most prestigious holy site, Fátima. Come in this journey to discover Portuguese culture and history in one of the most stunning places our country has to offer. You will visit important Catholic sites, including the house of the three little shepherds, the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fátima and the Chapel of Apparitions. Fátima is where "Our Holy Lady of Fátima" appeared to three sheppard children in 1917. In May 2017, two of the children were canonized by Pope Francis himself. It is a place most Popes come to visit during their reigns. We highly recommend making this trip between March-October and enjoy the famous Fátima Candle Procession.

The Sanctuary of Fatima is a place of devotion on a prodigious scale, a pilgrimage destination and a sacred enclosure. The secrets of Fátima and the "miracle of the sun" are one of the attractions of religious tourism.

The crown of the Virgin guards the bullet that was extracted from Pope John . Paul II in 1981. To the east of the sanctuary, the children's houses have been preserved and are known as the Little Shepherds' Houses.

The small village of Aljustrel was the birthplace of the three little shepherds. The house of the brothers Francisco and Jacinta can be visited, as well as Lúcia's house, which has been converted into a museum depicting the local way of life at the beginning of the 20th century. Starting from Aljustrel, you can walk the Via Crucis of Valinhos. This was the path that Lucia, Jacinto and Francisco took from Aljustrel to the Cova da Iria.
