Chapel of the Apparitions

This was a very beautiful moving spiritual experience. We had Mass, prayed the Rosary and had a candlelight procession. It was so awesome and we sang to The Lady of the Rosary (the Blessed Virgin Mary) as we had a candlelight procession on the grounds outside of the Chapel of Apparitions and the Basilica of the Lady of the Rosary of Fatima. I went two nights because it was so beautiful! I highly recommend this experience!

Beautiful chapel. At night it can get a bit chilly (we went late October) and since it's an open aired chapel we brought light jackets to attend a mass. You can really feel the spiritual engery in Fatima.

The chapel of the Apparitions a nice little church compare with the main one. The place was really full of people praying and showing respect to the Fatima Virgin. Later during the morning was a mass.

One of the three major places of worship and Marian devotion on the huge plaza of Fatima. The chapel is used by the faithful for silent devotion, either sitting on the benches or circumambulating on their knees the altar and the statue of Our Lady of the Rosary. Catholic masses are celebrated and rosaries prayed several times a day, and in the evenings the candlelight procession around the plaza starts and ends there. I am not sure whether the candlelight procession happens every evening during the week. I was visiting over a long weekend and, therefore, could observe all the mid-month of June festivities.

The chapel marks the site where Mother Mary appeared to the 3 little child shepherds. A beautiful miraculous place of worship

Sacred Place where exactly Our Lady appeared to three Shepherd Children.

Many those specially Love our Lady honour her Mediating and praying the Mysteries of the Holy Rosary on their knee and going around the apparition Chapel.
I was blessed to offer the Holy Mass here.

Please visit and be blessed through her by the Lord Jesus.
Yes Our Lady can hold your hand on your journey and no doubt you'll blessed with Eternal rewards.
AVE MARIA

If you are a coming here as a pilgrm, I highly recommend attending the nightly rosary, lighting of candles and a procession starting from the chapel. At night, there is limited seating, but standing throughout the prayers is an option. Even in the middle of summer, it is very windly and cool in this part of Portugal, so keep yourself warm.

Chapel of Apparitions
The very heart of the Sanctuary. It was the first edifice constructed in the Cova da Iria, at the place of Our Lady's Apparitions.
The exact spot is marked by a marble pillar on which the Statue of Our Lady is placed.
Here converge the four million pilgrims who visit the Sanctuary each year. (Fatima Sanctuary Tourism)

Sacred place. A small chapel where the actual apparitions happened that made Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta special and blessed. This chapel was constructed per instruction of the Our Lady of the Rosary. So many pilgrims who pray silently and some kneel-walking. You will see the image of the Virgin Mary in the middle of this chapel. Excellent place to pray and to make an earnest request from the Blessed Virgin Mary. Highly recommend to all Catholics.

A touching experience to pray in front of Our Lady in the Chapel of Apparitions. In this place the three little shepherds saw the Blessed Virgin Mary and her true presence can still be felt today. The statue of the Madonna is not very large but fortunately you can see it up close.

Everything you'd expect. Not too crowded if visiting on non feast days. Beautiful feeling, respectful crowds. Must attend at least one mass here for sure

Love the rosary and candlelight procession here, with multiple languages used. Very powerful!

This chapel is situated exactly where Our Lady appeared to three Shepherd Children. This is a very holy place . Holy Mass is celebrating every day in different languages.

Many those specially Love our Lady honour her Mediating and praying the Mysteries of the Holy Rosary on their knee and going around the apparition Chapel.

There is a candle procession in the evening. It's a wonderful experience that walking with Our Lady.

The chapel is a simple, yet beautiful glass-encased square of a space. The walls can be rolled closed or open depending on the number of pilgrims, and I suppose, the season. In the peak months, this is where the English masses are held and also where the international rosary takes place.

It’s a holy place with full of devotees, since we visited on weekday it was not crowded.

A small chapel in the place of apparition. Masses are held here all the time.

One of my favorite place in Iberia. Peace, meditation, a must see place.
