Puig de Missa, Fortified church on hilltop in Santa Eulària des Riu, Spain.

The white stone church structure stands 52 meters above sea level, featuring a single barrel vault with four chapels on each side.

Construction began in the 16th century, with the current building inaugurated in 1568 as a vicarage dependent on the parish of Santa María.

The main altar displays a Baroque retablo created by José Ferreres between 1674-1678, featuring gilded woodwork and four solomonic columns.

Religious services occur every Sunday at 11:00, with additional celebrations taking place on February 12th and the first Sunday of May.

The semi-circular defensive tower contained weapons until the mid-19th century, reflecting the building's dual religious and protective functions.
