Sant Romà

Monument · Brunyola i Sant Martí Sapresa, Selva, Girona

Hermitage located next to the mas Salló, on a knoll near the path linking Sant Dalmai and Sant Martí Sapresa, in the municipality of Brunyola i Sant Martí Sapresa (Selva). Documented as a suffragan of the church of Sant Amanç since 1279, it is an isolated building with a rectangular plan and a horseshoe-shaped semicircular apse in Romanesque style, to which a sacristy, a western porch and a large two-arched bell-gable topped with three pinnacles were later added. The facade, whitewashed and now in poor condition, preserves a voussoired portal and an oculus. Beneath the choir are kept ex-votos related to the former compulsory military service, in honour of its patron saint, venerated as a soldier. It is listed in the Catalan architectural heritage register under number IPAC 33459.
