Tips

Francesc Garcia - MONTFRANC

September 20, 2022

It is a hermitage with two floors: ground floor, with an old oratory, sacristy, vestibule and stairs that lead to the first floor where the cell, kitchen and other rooms were located. Its plan is rectangular, small in size and built with stone blocks bound with mortar. It has a double-sided roof and side gable on the facade. While the desert served as a spa, this hermitage functioned as a pavilion for inhalations and sprays. It is kept in fairly good condition.

This hermitage, like that of the Nativity and Sant Roc, were built with the aim of providing a more comfortable and larger place for the important figures of the Order who visited the monastery and wanted to retire for a few days. The construction and dedication was done in 1673 by Padre Fray Pedro de San Juan, Definitor General of the Order. During the exclaustration, the hermitage was abandoned and the fountain regained its old name: el Borboll (1835).
