Hermitages and churches

The stones here speak, because they are a part
of our past and a part of our present.

Beniarbeig

Ermita de la Casa Santonja

This hermitage is located on the estate of Casa Santonja, situated between Beniarbeig and El Verger.

The estate is made up of a group of buildings constructed between the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century in the neo-Gothic style, which was predominant at the time.

Among the outbuildings, located on the same side as the tower, there is a chapel dedicated to the Immaculate Conception.

The main facade is crowned by a stone belfry with a bell, cross and adornments at each end. The side entrance to the chapel is formed by a Gothic doorway with multiple archivolts, lined by fine pinnacles and topped with an oculus.

On entering the chapel, the entire surface of the opposing wall is occupied by a neo-Gothic altarpiece with a profusion of gilding and a flamboyant feel, through which one can access the sacristy from both sides of the altar. Above the tabernacle, an image of the Immaculate Conception presides in a niche, and on each side of the altar there are carvings of El Sagrat Cor de Jesús and Sant Josep amb El Xiquet. (1) (2)
