The church of San Vicente Ferrer, a 16th-century parish in Sant Vicent del Raspeig, originated as a hermitage dedicated to San Ponce which, over the centuries, was transformed into the present-day church dedicated to San Vicente Ferrer. The change of dedication recalls a local tradition, not confirmed by documents, according to which the Valencian preacher stopped in these lands around 1411. It is one of the most notable historic buildings in the municipality.
