This hermitage was founded by Fra Guerau Miquel, who on July 28, 1192 obtained possession of this area, where he lived since around 1160. The hermit founded two chapels, one dedicated to St. Mary and another , St. Bartholomew; but only the second lasts. In 1210, Fra Guerau ceded this territory to Pere Balb and his wife Guillema, who founded a female community in Santa Maria which, in 1215, settled in Bonrepòs. The hermitage of Sant Bartomeu first belonged to the monastery of Santa Maria de Bonrepòs, confirmed by Jaume II in 1292, and later passed into the domain of the Carthusian Monastery of Escaladei.

It was plastered inside in the 18th century until it fell into disrepair. The hermit's house was attached. Around 1970, the whole was refurbished, removing the hermit's house and restoring the hermitage, works carried out by the parish of Ulldemolins.
