Mare de Déu de Rocacorba, Catholic pilgrimage church at 929 meters in Canet d'Adri, Spain.

Mare de Déu de Rocacorba is a stone church that stands on a mountain summit and features an arched entrance with a visible bell tower. The building occupies an elevated location that commands views across multiple valleys.

The site appears as "rocha curva" in a 1065 testament by Guillem Guifré kept in the Girona cathedral archive. In 1161 Berenguer de Rocacorba and his family handed the taxes claimed by the church of Santa Maria de Rocacorba to Bishop Guillem de Peratallada, after which the castle passed to the bishops of Girona. The castle changed hands among the Hostoles, Cartellà and Rocabertí families, and after the earthquakes of 1427–1431 and the Catalan civil war its church became a Marian sanctuary.

The church draws pilgrims who come to venerate Mare de Déu, a figure central to local religious life and devotion. Visitors witness how this location serves as a spiritual center for people seeking connection to their faith and the region.

The church is reached via marked hiking trails from Canet d'Adri, with a round trip covering about 14 kilometers over varied terrain. Visitors should come prepared for changing weather conditions and bring appropriate footwear for the demanding paths.

On the western side of the rock, the base of a tower, a three-metre stretch of wall and another wall with a rectangular opening survive from the castle. The tower and wall are built of irregular medium-sized limestone, while the other wall uses larger stones bound with lime mortar.
