On June 13, 2008, anniversary of the second apparition of Our Lady at Fatima and also anniversary of the enthronement of the statue of Our Lady in the Little Chapel of Apparitions, a Memorial to Jacinta, the little seer of Fatima who died on February 20,1920, was blessed and inaugurated at the Cemetery of Ourém.
This gesture of homage to the Seer and Little Shepherd, who was beatified together with her brother Francisco by Pope John Paul II on May 13, 2000, was a joint initiative of the local government of Ourém and the Secretariat of the Little Shepherds, headed by Fr. Kondor, Vice-Postulator for the Cause of Canonization of Francisco and Jacinta Marto.
The monument will recall, for the people of Ourém and the devotees who will visit it, the place of rest for fifteen years of the mortal remains of Jacinta Marto until the day of their translation, on September 12, 1935, to the Cemetery of Fatima and, later on, to the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima, in the Shrine of Fatima, on April 30, 1951.
