Ermita de San Formerio, Romanesque hermitage church in Pangua, Spain.

The San Formerio hermitage features a Latin cross layout with ribbed vaults and two side chapels connected by semicircular arches.

Built in the 12th century, this religious structure served dual purposes as both a church and a military fortification at 752 meters altitude.

The sanctuary houses a main altarpiece divided into three sections displaying images of Saint Formerio, Saint Roch, Saint Anthony, and the Crucified Christ.

Access to the hermitage requires driving through Pangua village and following an ascending road that leads directly to the religious site.

Anthropomorphic tombs dating from the 9th and 10th centuries are carved into the rock formation on the eastern side of the sanctuary.
