    Comparing this to the church across the plaza is like comparing a 3rd graders art piece to Michelangelo’s work. An attempt was made. Bring back works that take generations not years to make. This feels more like a Protestant church and a Catholic one. Or a multipurpose station at a local college.

    Just to be clear and not her confused: the church of the Holy Trinity is the more modern and bigger church located at the entrance of Fatima Sanctuary, while church of the virgin of the rosary of Fatima is the older and taller one (the iconic church of the sanctuary). The church of Holy trinity is more functional than beautiful. The interior is quite dull, with the exception of the mosaics over the altar. But it is an essential place for people who visit the sanctuary. In front of the church, two stairs bring you to the lower floor, where you will find the Chapel of Reconciliation (Reconciliaçao), where you can be confessed, the chapel of the Holy Sacrament, a temporary and free exhibition about the rosary.

    It looks really modern and not how I would’ve expected a church in Fátima but I must say that it does look good! The basilica is gigantic must allow for huge masses during messes!

    The architectural beauty of this place is truly captivating. As I stepped into the Basilica, I was immediately struck by its breathtaking serenity. The design and layout are truly remarkable, and the sense of tranquility it evokes is astonishing. The church is pleasantly cooled with air conditioning, enhancing the overall experience. The artistry displayed on the altar is nothing short of extraordinary. Without a doubt, I am eager to revisit this remarkable location. I would visit here again. Highly recommended!

    The Basilica of the Most Holy Trinity is a big church across from the main church. Very spacious and bright. A wedding just ended by the time that we got there, an adult couple very simple.

    A holy place to pay your respect to Mother of Jesus, our lady of Fatima. There is rosary and mass everyday with the our lady procession to the church. Please see the information board at the entrance for more details.

  • 5/5 Marilou T. 1 year ago on Google
    A Catholic church with a simple yet very contemporary design located in the southeast corner of the sanctuary of Fátima. The main altar of the basilica has the crucifix and the statue of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. It seats 8,633 churchgoers and it can be divided into two areas by a moving partition. There are 76 seats for disabled people. If you go outside, there are 2 tall parallel structures which is very cool spot to taken photos or videos.

    Great spiritual Church, huge and well constructed. You can breathe peace since you enter. Sometimes, the Gospel is read is different languages.

  • 5/5 Michael H. 7 months ago on Google • 216 reviews
    Von innen ein überraschend positiv wirkender Raum. Alles ist hell und freundlich. Die Sitze haben einen gewissen Komfort und keinen Beichtstuhlkarakter mehr. Die komplette Front überspannt ein Mosaik. Auf diesem ist das Fegefeuer, zumindest für eine katholische Kirche, angenehm klein gehalten. Von außen wirkt der fensterlose Bau allerdings sehr monumental und eher abschreckend. Die Architektur wirkt auf uns so als hätte auch Albert Speer verantworten können.

    This is a minor basilica near the southwest end of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fatima. It was opened in 1986, dedicated in 2007 and elevated to that of minor basilica in 2012. What you will find is a circular building of simple, modern architecture designed to be functional over decorative. There is a large interior auditorium and seating area with a capacity of around 9000 people. There is also a main altar features a gilded religious image behind a contemporary crucifix and image of Christ.

  • 5/5 Petra D. 11 months ago on Google
    Very peaceful and quiet due to the huge space designated to host many people. Must be amazing during big mass times.

  • 4/5 Arul S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to visit even if you are not religious. Supposedly the church is the largest in the world and can seat 8000!

  • 5/5 Da51lva 10 months ago on Google
    Emotional place to visit, and you don't have to be religious.

  • 5/5 Rui L. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the most beautiful temple. The ambience, although Catholic in its essence, it's also very ecumenical - quite Zen.

  • 5/5 Mario D. 2 years ago on Google
    Sacred land. One can feel the energy emanating.

  • 5/5 Daniel H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great new basilica, since the old one couldn't accommodate so many pilgrims.

  • 5/5 Gerardo M. 1 year ago on Google
    It invites you to be humble and remember who you are. Father in heaven lives, so His son Jesus Christ!

  • 5/5 Pedro R. 1 year ago on Google
    Magical place. I love the peace and the atmosphere all around. Very beautiful church, however, the Mass was 1h 10 mins… a little bit too long, especially if you go with kids.

    Wonderful and peaceful temple. The murals are exquisite and transported me into a calm and faithful state of mind. I prayed, meditated and after took some time to appreciate the work of art and uniqueness of the piece. Highly recommend it.

  • 5/5 Malcolm F. 1 year ago on Google
    The Basilica was built to accommodate larger crowds as compared to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fatima. The shrine brings a sense of calmness.

  • 5/5 Louise W. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful! Stop in for a few minutes and find interior peace regardless of your religious belief or background. WC adjacent for added convenience.
