Sant Sebastià Hermitage

Good view (360º), shade and picnic area to replenish your energy.The hermitage of Sant Sebastià is located about 6 kilometers from Llinars del Vallès, at an altitude of 406 meters, from where it offers an exceptional view of the Coast and the Pre-coast. Some sources claim that it has been documented since 1640 and for years only its ruins were preserved. In 2016, a group of volunteers started its reconstruction and in 2017 the gathering in honor of the Saint was restored.The hermitage was 10 meters long and 5 meters wide and stood out for its wall or spade bell tower, as well as for the vaulted portal. The chapel had two granite windows, buttresses on each side, a vaulted arcade behind the altar and a great wealth of corner stones.Since 2016, thanks to the work and effort of volunteers, the collaboration of various companies and anonymous contributions, it has been possible to rebuild the hermitage as faithfully as possible to the original building. In 2018, the company that owns the forest estate ceded the right of way, use and enjoyment to the Association of residents of Sant Esteve del Coll and the Agrupació de Defensa Forestal (ADF) of Llinars.It is known that the residents of this neighborhood gathered in a gathering at the hermitage to honor Sant Sebastià, the martyr who advocated against the plague, lightning and storms. In the surroundings were the stones of Sant Sebastià, which, according to belief, brought luck and protected against plagues.
