Create an itinerary including Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima

Spiritual travelers and history fans come to Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima, where it is believed the first of six apparitions of the Virgin Mary in Portugal occurred. This church, along with a grouping of Roman Catholic structures at the same site, serve as a national monument and sanctuary for religious pilgrimages. The basilica honors the recorded sightings in 1916 of an angel believed to be the Virgin Mary. Join the many others who come to this site because of its spiritual presence, historical curiosities, and architectural intrigue. You can go inside the church to see the carillon of 62 bells and stained-glass windows depicting the events of the Marian apparitions at Fátima. Make Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima a centerpiece of your Fatima vacation itinerary, and find what else is worth visiting using our Fatima road trip planning tool.

I was blessed to visit the Basilica during the Feast of the Miracle of the Sun. Despite the incredible crowds, I felt serenity and solemnity in this space. It is a must visit during a trip to Fatima

I am not sure the essence of this place can truly be communicated in a review. It is a beautiful Basilica in a wonderful religious square. The architecture, while regal and impressive, remains understated to the spirit and purpose of this place as appropriate. Come here and rest, breathe, contemplate and let go. Offer and visit the tombs of the children. Pray for them and the world and all. I hope to have the opportunity to visit often.

Beautiful place Please follow the signs to enter and exit. They have it setup as one way loop. There are bathrooms right outside I would use prior to entering g the whole area. You can see the power of this place in pictures added to this review.
