The chapel was built in 1919 in response to a request from Our Lady of the Rosary: I want a chapel to be built here in my honour. A little bigger than a niche, the chapel was born from the volunteer work of Maria dos Santos Carreira, a woman from the people who had been coming to Cova da Iria since 13 June 1917. However, before the chapel was built, there was a wooden arch built over the holm oak of the apparitions. Maria dos Santos Carreira began by clearing the undergrowth around the holm oak and decorating it with flowers and devotional ribbons. Then, with the help of her husband, she built a wall around the holm oak and erected a wooden arch. When this arch was destroyed in October 1917 and taken to Santarém (to be displayed there in a parody of a procession), the people were already leaving alms next to the holm oak. It was Maria dos Santos Carreira who carefully stored these alms. The first were 30 réis and a few pieces of fruit. But she soon had a cloth bag full of coins. The fate of the alms left in Fátima was so important that Father Manuel Nunes Formigão included it in the interrogation he conducted with Lúcia: “What did Our Lady say should be done with the money that the people deposit in Cova da Iria, near the holm oak tree?” Father Formigão asked Lúcia, who, in her response, said that these were the orders the Lady gave her: “She said that part of the money would be used for the cult and festival of Our Lady of the Rosary and the rest would be used to help build a new chapel.”

The High Cross is a monument erected on 29 August 2007 at the Sanctuary of Fátima, designed by the artist Robert Schad and measuring 34 metres in height. It was built to replace the old High Cross, which was 27 metres high and erected to mark the end of the Holy Year of 1950/1951, and which was located at the back of the prayer area, where the Basilica of the Holy Trinity is now located. It was donated to the National Sanctuary of Christ the King, in Almada.[1] It was built by the Portuguese company 'Mecanidraulica (Maia) and transported in 4 parts to Fátima. The oxidation of the corten steel, the material in which it was built, gives it an appearance that changes colour, becoming redder in dry weather and darker in the rain. A living Cross, with its own personality, just like Fátima

During this International Anniversary Pilgrimage in May 2022, the 5th anniversary of the canonization of Francisco and Jacinta Marto will be celebrated, who on May 13, 2017 became the youngest non-martyr saints of the Church. The canonization took place in Cova da Iria, during the celebrations of the Centenary of the Apparitions, presided over by Pope Francis, after a miracle attributed to Francisco and Jacinta was approved, validated by the Vatican on March 23, 2017 and announced on April 20, at the end of the Ordinary Public Consistory to vote on some Causes of Canonization, in what would be the last stage of a process that lasted 65 years. At 10:26 am on May 13, 2017, the Holy Father declared the sanctity of Francisco and Jacinta Marto at the altar of the Prayer Area, in a canonization rite that took place at the beginning of the Mass and after the formal request of the then bishop of Leiria-Fátima, D. António Marto, accompanied by the Postulator of the Cause of Canonization of Francisco and Jacinta, a moment that is remembered on the eve of the Sanctuary of Fátima.

The Sanctuary of Fátima is one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the Catholic world. It is located in the city of Fátima, Portugal, and is the place where the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to three children in 1917. These children were Lúcia dos Santos, aged 10, and her cousins Francisco Marto, aged 9, and Jacinta Marto, aged 7.

“The small chapel in which we find ourselves is like a beautiful image of the Church: welcoming, without doors. The Church has no doors, so that everyone can enter. […] Because this is the mother’s house, and a mother’s heart is always open to all her children. Everyone, everyone, everyone. Without exclusion.” Not only the Chapel of the Apparitions, but the entire space of the Prayer Area of the Shrine of Fátima is perceived by those who visit it as a church without doors where everyone, without exception, can enter and leave freely. Whoever comes, with more or less faith, or even no faith at all, whether they practice religious regularly, occasionally or residually, whether they belong to the Church to a greater or lesser extent, whatever their history and representations of God, can enter and leave freely. In this place there is no doorman, no one is asked for credentials, nothing is asked of them in return — neither that they return nor that they start living in a different way. The experience of coming to the Shrine of Fátima offers an unconditional and free possibility of contact with the transcendent. Anonymity, which in ordinary life is a depersonalizing factor, in the experience of the Shrine is often synonymous with discretion, making each person, regardless of their status quo, a member of a people, a pilgrim and a brother to all in the awareness of their own fragility and in the search for the face of God. All are children in search. In the face of the crowds that visit the Shrine and the decreasing number of parish assemblies, some present their criticisms. It may be that, for many, the experience of Fátima satisfies a comfortable à la carte Christian practice, accentuating the deep-seated individualism that characterizes Western societies of our century: consumer, without commitment, when they want, if they want and how they want.

The Chapel of the Apparitions is a small chapel located in Cova da Iria that was built in the 1920s to mark the exact spot where three little shepherds reported receiving the famous apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Fátima, Portugal.
