Favorites

This church was originally part of a convent founded in 1427 between Pg de Gràcia and C/ Pau Claris. It was later moved to its current location.

Cultural heritage

It was back in 1835, when the Franciscans left the nearby convent of Santa Maria de Jesús de Gràcia, that the local people called for a parish church of their own to be built, now the oldest one in Gràcia.
The church we see today, designed by Josep Goday, was built in 1949. There are some beautiful images inside: the altar of the Virgin of Sorrows, with sculptures on by Joan Rebull, and the baptistery and Virgin of Fàtima.
