Santuari de la Mare de Déu de la Salut de Sabadell

Santuari de la Mare de Déu de la Salut de Sabadell, Parish church in Sabadell, Spain.

The Santuari de la Mare de Déu de la Salut is an eclectic church on the Sant Iscle ridge at 226 metres, in the Parc de la Salut. Its stepped roofs and blind arcades combine neo-Romanesque and neo-Gothic elements. The modernist bell tower, built in 1907 by Miquel Pascual Tintorer, has a square plan turning octagonal and a glazed ceramic pinnacle. A columned atrium was added in 1939-1945 by Francesc Folguera.

The sanctuary stands on the remains of the Roman villa of Arraona and of the medieval chapel of Sant Iscle i Santa Victòria, documented since the 14th century and used as a quarantine site during epidemics. According to tradition, around 1652 a hermit found an image of the Virgin near the Canyameres stream, giving rise to the devotion to the Virgin of Health, patron saint of Sabadell. The present eclectic church was rebuilt after the Civil War (1939-1945) by architect Francesc Folguera i Grassi.

The Virgin of la Salut, found by a hermit near the Canyameres stream around 1652, is the patron saint of Sabadell. Each year the sanctuary hosts the Aplec, a gathering celebrated with devotion. The church depends on the archpriestal church of Sant Fèlix, in the bishopric of Terrassa.

The site is best visited during daylight hours to fully appreciate the architectural details and artworks inside. Wear comfortable shoes as the location is on a slope with stairs leading to the entrance.

The murals and stained glass were made by the Sabadell painter Antoni Vila Arrufat (1894-1989). Between 1944 and 1952 he painted frescoes in the presbytery, apse and upper nave walls; from 1958 to 1962 he added four large oil murals on the Virgin's life, the sanctuary's history and motifs linked to Sabadell. The altar of the Santíssim (1946) has sculptures and reliefs by Enric Monjo.
