Sanctuary or destination point

The hermitage of Crist Rei (254m) is located to the southwest of the town centre. This oratory was built in the twenties of the twentieth century and, in the sixties, it was demolished as a result of an earthwork caused by the mines in the area. Today, the celebration takes place within the three walls that remain standing.
