It is affectionately known by the Bernbachers as "the grotto". It invites walkers to linger, pause, to rest, and to pray and to worship Mary. It was built between 1954-1958.

Chapel that was only built in the 1950s after a Bernbach citizen made a promise to do so during World War II.

This "Fatima Chapel" is dedicated to the Mother of God. It was named after the town of Fatima in Portugal, where Mary appeared several times to some shepherd children in 1917 (i.e. during the First World War). Our Lady revealed three mysteries to the children.
Pope John Paul II has attributed his survival of the assassination attempt on him that took place on May 13 – the commemoration of the first apparition of Mary in Fatima – to Our Lady there. The bullet that nearly killed him was later incorporated into the crown of the statue of Mary at Fatima.
