Viewpoint of Sant Salvador

Image of Jorba, not of the place itself.

The Sant Salvador viewpoint corresponds to the Capella de Sant Salvador, in the locality of Mas de Bover, within the municipality of Jorba (Anoia). It is a ruined temple in late Romanesque style from the 12th-13th centuries, of rectangular plan, of which only the north wall and part of the east wall survive, built in ashlar with mortar and with six courses of visible plinth; it also preserves remains of a barrel vault in the north sector and the access door facing east. The west side was lost when the Can Bover farmhouse was built against it. Nearby there is a spring covered using the technique of a false dome by corbelled courses. It is catalogued in the Inventory of the Architectural Heritage of Catalonia under number 5831.
