The Waxworks Museum, one of the first in Portugal, is very close to the Sanctuary and the wax figures show in 31 scenes the story of the Fátima witnesses and the other historical events related to the shrine. The ‘Beatification of the Shepherds’ scene, commemorates the beatification ceremony of Jacinta and Francisco, which took place on the 13th May 2000, an anniversary of the first appearance of the Virgin Mary. Other dates commemorated are the Papal visits of Paul VI in 1967 and John Paul II in 1982 and 1991.
