Fátima

2495-402 Fátima, Portugal

Fatima needed a larger church so they had the Church of the Most Holy Trinity built. This huge church was constructed between 2004 and 2007. It seats about 8,500 persons. You can see the church in the background of the photo. On the right, you see the covering over the little chapel, the apparition site. The church was paid for by donations from faithful pilgrims at a cost of about 80 million Euros. The design is of Byzantine architecture. Check the schedules for Masses and events to see where you go to attend. The Mass may be at the Capelinha, the Basilica, or the Church. Fatima is steadily growing. The little town is now like a small city. Sometimes outside the Sanctuary, it’s too busy for me.
