Sanctuary of Our Lady of Ortiga

The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Ortiga is a Marian shrine near Fátima, tied to an older apparition tradition involving a young shepherd girl. It is much quieter than the main Sanctuary of Fátima, but it belongs to the same landscape of pilgrimage and rural devotion.

Come here for a calmer religious stop, especially if you are exploring the sites around Fátima rather than only the central basilicas.
