Church of Sant Pere de Sacama

Share:

The Sant Pere hermitage is the former chapel of the Castell de Sacama (or Camba) castle, and is dedicated to the Apostle Peter. It is a single-nave chapel with a semi-circular Lombard apse and a bell tower in the shape of a small chair. The apse is all that remains of the old Romanesque chapel, built between 963 and 966 A.D. over the remains of an old Visigothic oratory. It is a magnificent looking construction, with fine masonry, Lombard arches and a small semicircular central window. The rest of the nave is the product of a subsequent reconstruction. The door faces west and has a lintel.

In the archeological digs that have been conducted, significant findings have been made both within and outside the hermitage: the presence of an Iberian-era site dating back to the 2nd century B. C. and the remains of a dwelling classified as Carolingian and of a medieval necropolis (14th-15th century).
