Nowadays, Fátima receives thousands of faithful pilgrims every year, especially on the 13th of May – an annual pilgrimage day. On these occasions, followers of the ‘Way to the Cross’ pilgrimage are led to 14 chapels – each one evoking the stages of the ‘Passion of Christ.’ This walk begins at the Santa Teresa de Ourém roundabout, leads to the ‘Valinhos’ monument (where the fourth apparition took place) and ends at the ‘Calvary’, having passed through the ‘Angel’s Cave’ (site where the Angel of Peace appeared twice to the shepherd children, in the spring and autumn of 1916).
