Historical Aspects

There is certain news about 1669 from both the hermitage and the San Sebastian Brotherhood. It would, therefore, be possible to date the building at the end of the 16th century or the beginning of the 17th century. Under the advocation of San Sebastian, patron saint of the town, as well as many other neighbouring municipalities liberated by the intervention of the Catholic Monarchs, who felt great devotion to the holy warrior. However, in this case, its sponsorship was not recognized until 1804 from the Holy See, a time that was used to build the current chapel, larger than the previous one. Also, its roof was restored back in the 80s.
