Ermita de Sant Jaume Sesoliveres
Ermita de Sant Jaume Sesoliveres, Romanesque hermitage church in Igualada, Spain.
The church features a rectangular nave with a semicircular apse and two rounded archway doors characteristic of Romanesque religious architecture.
The first documented mention of the hermitage dates back to 1059 when the lords of Odena Castle donated it to a Montserrat monk.
The hermitage represents a significant stop on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela and maintains traditional religious celebrations throughout the year.
The building stands at 352 meters above sea level and underwent substantial restoration work between 1993 and 1995 by the Barcelona Provincial Council.
Local residents historically gathered at this church to perform rituals requesting rain and protection from diseases during challenging times.
