Mare de Déu de Gràcia, Medieval hermitage in Vila-real, Spain.

The hermitage features a rectangular nave with ribbed vaulting, a main altar, and a stone portal with a semicircular arch configuration.

The hermitage's origins trace back to 1577, when the first construction began, following the presence of hermits documented since the late 14th century.

The main altar houses the patron saint image, accompanied by smaller figures of Saint James, Saint Pascal, and Saint Elizabeth carved by Pedro Gil.

Visitors can access the hermitage through the Termet natural area, which includes a botanical garden along the banks of the Mijares River.

Below the vestibule, a small oratory called coveta contains baroque decorations and connects to a Civil War-era cave extending to Cueva Santa street.
