This monument pays homage to the Virgin Mary. In 1917 in the town of Fatima, Portugal it is said that the Virgin Mary appeared six times to three children. During this time she revealed to them three secrets, one about the reality of hell, the importance of devotion to Mary and one so secret that only the Pope knows it. If you zoom up close you can see the shrine, the earth with a crown on top, a tall pillar extending from the earth upon which a statue of Mary is placed.
