The Chapel of the Apparitions is one of the most symbolic places for the believers of Fatima. The pedestal on which the statue of Our Lady stands marks the exact spot where the apparitions of May 13 to October 13 occurred.
The Chapel was built at the request of Our Lady, who asked the Little Shepherds to have a place of prayer built there in Her honor. The construction of the Chapel of the Apparitions began in 1919.
