Santuari de Puiggraciós, Baroque church in Figaró-Montmany, Spain.

The Santuari de Puiggraciós is a Baroque church situated on a mountaintop in Figaró-Montmany, displaying elaborate decorative details and architectural features typical of that style. A small residential community maintains and inhabits the site on a continuous basis.

Construction began in 1701 near the spot where, by legend, a shepherd and an ox found the Virgin's image; it opened for worship in 1711 and the main altarpiece was finished in 1737. On 25 July 1936 the sanctuary was burned and its Baroque altarpiece destroyed, though neighbours hid the image. Rebuilding started in 1939 and was completed under architect Lluís Bonet i Garí, with solemn inauguration on 8 September 1957.

Until the 17th century the image was kept at Sant Pau de Montmany; each 25 March parishioners carried it in procession to the summit, blessed the municipal term and handed out blessed bread rolls. The name Mare de Déu de Puiggraciós is documented from 1698. A legend says a shepherd and an ox found the image near a small chapel by the old optical telegraph tower.

The sanctuary stands at 689.2 metres on the eastern spur of the Cingles de Bertí, just below the Puiggraciós summit. The final approach is on foot; the nearest villages are Figaró and l'Ametlla del Vallès. The site is exposed, so carry water and sun protection. Since summer 2026 the Benedictine community has left, so check access to the church interior before climbing.

The Benedictine community that cared for the sanctuary for over half a century left in the summer of 2026; the last prioress administrator was Roser Caminal. The Gothic image kept in the cambril, 69 cm tall, is the original carving, restored in 1953 and standing on a pedestal decorated with shields of Montserrat, Núria, Mercè and the Roser.
