San Javier gets its own parish

Historical milestone · San Javier, Mar Menor, Murcia

Image of San Javier, not of the place itself.

The hermitage built in the seventeenth century, around which the colonists of the countryside had gradually gathered, reached the rank of parish; the fact fixed the urban center and settled on the place the name of the Navarrese saint.
