Mare de Déu de les Ares, Religious sanctuary in Alt Àneu, Spain.

Mare de Déu de les Ares is a modern sanctuary in Alt Àneu, Pallars Sobirà, built in imitation of Romanesque style and reconstructed in 1960. It replaced an older sanctuary on the same site. The church stands near the C-28 road, with the Refugi de les Ares just across the road to the northwest.

The present sanctuary replaced an older building and was rebuilt in 1960 in a style imitating Romanesque architecture. It belonged to the former Mancomunitat dels Quatre Pobles, a grouping of four villages in the Pallars Sobirà. The sanctuary has remained a place of worship since its reconstruction.

Every July 7th, people from the region gather here for religious ceremonies and celebrations rooted in local customs. This annual gathering gives the place its role as a community meeting point in the mountains.

The location is easiest to reach by car using the C-28 road, which provides access to mountain trails. Visitors should be prepared for alpine weather and changing conditions.

The sanctuary is administered by the Diocese of Urgell and registered as a Cultural Asset in Catalonia's Architectural Heritage inventory. This status protects it as a place of regional importance.
