This church is declared as a national monument. It is isolated, in the middle of the field and with the Sierra de Guara as the only reference, in the background. It was ordered to be built as a family pantheon by Ximeno de Foces in the 13th century. This family was also the builder of the Valencia Cathedral. To visit its interior, contact the Ibieca City Council.

The church of San Martín de Foces is a linear Gothic style temple from the 14th century. It was ordered to be built by Ximeno de Foces in 1249 as a family pantheon, and later donated to the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem.
It is the only vestige of the ancient town of Foces, and was declared a National Monument in 1916. It is highly appreciated for the sarcophagi and the fresco paintings located in the side arms of the temple.

The infamous church of gravel as we called it. Nice to look at, and conveniently placed next to great gravel roads and even a single track!
