    Definitely worths a stop! A mdevial chapel that used to be the centre of the ancient little village in the valley around it ( reached to Can Gordi) , appeared in document dated back to the 10th Century. The chapel was completely destroyed and all its belongings, including the shrine, were gone to other farms or the government in 1835, when church processions were violently seizured in Spain. This archaeological discovery-restoration site was opened to the public since the 1980s, when 2 pieces of the original chapel floor, partial altar and a scripture plaque were found by the archaeologists. You can still see those findings on site. IT CAN BE DIFFICULT TO FIND, as the chapel couldn't be seen from any spot in the forest. But actually it's only a few meters above the fountain of the same name.
