The pedestal on which the original sculpture of Our Lady of Fátima stands marks the exact spot where was the small holm oak on which the Blessed Virgin Mary is believed to have appeared to the three shepherd children - Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta - on May 13, June, July, September and October 1917. During the recitation of the Rosary there will be a procession with the original statue of the Virgin followed by the faithful present with lighted candles.
