It is located on top of a small hill at the foot of Pico Pumar. The hermitage dates from the year 990, every year on August 6 there is a big party and the holy image is carried around.

The hermitage is located a few kilometers from Potes and even if you are not one to visit these sites, it is worth doing so because there is a viewpoint with a picnic area that offers wonderful views of the Cantabrian mountain range.
