Shrine of Fatima, Live Webcam, Portugal



More info: Fatima is a town and parish located 142 km north of Lisbon and is one of the most important catholic shrines in the world dedicated to the Virgin Mary. It became famous due to the apparitions of Virgin Mary to three little shepherd girls in 1917. The chapel was built in 1919 on the exact spot where a tree was rooted and where the Virgin Mary appeared to the young girls.

In the centre of the chapel is the original statue of the Virgin Mary from 1920 and in the crown lies the bullet that hit Pope John Paul II in the assassination attempt in Rome in May 1981.
