Hermitage of el Cristo de Les Useres

Monument · Les Useres, L'Alcalatén, Castellón

Hermitage located on a square in the center of Les Useres (L'Alcalatén, Castellón), listed as a Bien de Relevancia Local (heritage protection category at the local level). Built in the 17th century by Pablo Fabro, with clear Italian influence, with ashlar walls, a round-arched doorway surrounded by voussoirs, an oculus above the door and barred windows on either side; it is topped by a single-bay bell-gable with the figure of Christ. It houses the image of the Christ of the Agony, patron saint of Les Useres since 1864, in whose honor festivities are held during the first two weeks of August, with religious ceremonies and street bull-running.
