The Church of Sant Vicent
The church in the hamlet is called Església Sant Vicent. It was built a long time ago, between 1827 and 1838. The church has a special entrance with two arches. In front of the church, there's a tiny open space, like a small town square. This little plaza has just one palm tree standing tall. The front of the church looks very simple. However, there is a small sign that says the church is the "house of God and gate to heaven."
