Fátima

Fátima is a residential neighborhood in central-western Albacete with apartment buildings, local shops, and public facilities spread across its streets. The district includes a covered market for everyday goods and services that serve the daily needs of people living there.

The neighborhood grew from the 1920 urban plan for Albacete and developed into a major residential area with subsidized housing complexes built during that period. This planned layout shows how the city expanded in the early 20th century.

Our Lady of Fátima Church anchors the spiritual and social life of this neighborhood, bringing together residents around religious observances and community gatherings. The church tower is a distinctive landmark that people use for orientation in the district.

Multiple bus lines serve the district and connect it easily to other parts of Albacete for getting around the city. Most daily errands and services are within walking distance of residential areas.

The neighborhood has a swimming pool and sports pavilion that opened in the late 1980s and offer recreation for the community. These modern facilities came much later than the district's original residential construction.
