Santuari dels Àngels, Neoclassical sanctuary in Sant Martí Vell, Spain.

The original chapel, built between 1409 and 1420, received pilgrims seeking indulgences from Girona bishops starting in 1424.

The sanctuary houses a spacious shrine room, a small organ, and an exhibition space displaying numerous votive offerings from devoted pilgrims.

The sanctuary maintains a restaurant and lodging facilities for visitors, with direct access through the Carretera Sant Marti Vell road.

On August 8, 1958, the sanctuary hosted the private wedding ceremony of renowned artist Salvador Dalí and his wife Gala.
