The chapel was erected in 1948 after the statue of the Virgin Mary from Fatima toured Europe and was also in Otegem. It was built on the site of the Herrekot mill, which was severely damaged during the Second World War and subsequently demolished.

This chapel is located at almost the highest point of Otegem, from where you have a beautiful view of Zwevegem, Heestert, Otegem, Tiegem, the Kluisberg, Banhoutbos, etc ... Inside you will find a marble altar with a statue of Our Lady of Fatima and a barrel vault with frescoes by Tahon from Ghent.
