    This sanctuary brings together a compendium of styles, from the Lombard Romanesque to the Baroque, and it is believed that the church was already built at the end of the 9th century, when the diocese of Vic was restored. Formerly it was the nucleus of the town.

    It is rectangular in plan with four chapels on both sides. The vault is ribbed and the baptismal font is made of stone. It preserves a good part of the raised walls and the bell tower, in which a new floor was added in the 15th century. The portal is of Renaissance taste.

      Cited in the year 955 with the rural city called "Balagnans". There is news from 1272 and the name of Ajuda has been found since 1775, since before the town was called Bona Sort. The church was burnt down in 1654 by the French and the portal was rebuilt.

        Meeting point, from where a stack of paths lead to Hostalets, El Roc Gros, Tona, etc.
