    Twin of the one of Sant Onofre, the same very extensive balma sheltered both rooms; only separated by a bad step, saved by a walkway, (later it was removed in order to avoid dangers to the solitary life, nowadays it is possible to be passed while lowering the head.

    It had the entrance to the west, and needed no walls to enclose it, except at the front.

    Access was by good stairs. The hermitage had its own orchard at the foot of the rock, and two cisterns.

    Those who watch them from afar look like swallows' nests clinging to the cliff.

    In memory of this hermitage, the abbot Miquel Muntades built, in 1869, a viewing chapel, which today remains, dedicated to the Saint, in a neighboring hill, between Sant Joan and Sant Jaume.
