Ermita de Sant Vicent Ferrer de Pedramala

The chapel of Sant Vicent Ferrer is located in the district of Pedramala, about five kilometres from Benissa. Shortly after passing Benimarco the road forks and, taking the signposted turning to the right, after about 300 metres one finds a short, semi-asphalted road that leads to the recently restored chapel.

The origin of this chapel is a little uncertain, since the first document in which it appears is from the pastoral visit of 1863.

On the outside of the hermitage one finds a large open space, in the centre of which stands a stone cross and a pine tree. As for the chapel, it is a rectangular building of whitewashed, smooth, straight walls, reinforced by large buttresses and a tiled gable roof. To the left of the chapel, a narrow corridor separates it from a small outbuilding.

The front of the chapel is very simple, with a rectangular door and a belfry with a bell that was rebuilt during the last restoration.

The interior is of a single nave structure. A semicircular diaphragmatic arch divides it into two sections with the ceiling being of red-painted wooden beams, the space between decorated in blue. In the apse there is a door leading to the sacristy.

Behind the altar, a small altarpiece houses the image of Sant Vicent Ferrer.
