In this episode of “Here’s History”, we know the Sanctuary of Fatima, a place of pilgrimage of the faithful since 1917.
There are 47,000 square meters that annually welcome millions of pilgrims from all over the world.
Between May 1917, three shepherds report a set of Virgin Mary appearances. The experiences told by Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco give rise to a phenomenon on the planetary scale.
The passage of time watched the exponential growth of visitors. Greater than controversies, larger than labels, larger than its own space, the sanctuary has gained universal recognition.
From the distant year of 1917 to the days that fill us, Fatima remains with a symbology very own for those who head to the sanctuary.
Place of modesty, place of faith, place of prayer, place of supplication, Fatima is also a place of history.
O It is back to the night newspaper.
