#Fatima

On May 13, the Catholic Church around the world celebrates the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, established in 2002. Every year, the event gathers crowds of pilgrims from all over the world who come to Fatima to pray in front of the statue of Our Lady, who appeared to three children in 1917.

Did you know that when traveling to Ourem you can also visit Jurassic Park? Don't worry - the visit will not be as dangerous as those in the film series! In the park "Natural Monument In the Footsteps of Dinosaurs" in Ourém (Pegadas de Dinossáurios da Serra de Aire) you will see up close the prints of dinosaurs from 175 million years ago!

Young people from all over the world will meet this year in Lisbon to experience World Youth Day together. The participants of the meeting will also have the opportunity to visit Fatima, where the Holy Father will arrive on August 5.

It would be a really great idea to go to one of the Shrines of Europe cities on two wheels...

On May 27, the opening of the photography exhibition "Shrines of Europe - the path of culture and spirituality" took place.

Welcome to the new website of the Shrines of Europe Association, where you will find information about the cities - sanctuaries of Europe - the most important centers of Marian worship on the Old Continent.
