Parochial church
On the 6th of June 1779 the first stone was placed at the south side of Sant Miquel street. The work finished in four years, in 1783 (the same year it was blessed), immortalised over the portal of the main gate.
The new temple, a beautiful building with a delicate nave, four chapels on each side and platform at the height of the choir, is one of the biggest and most proportional of the region.
During the construction, permission was obtained to bury the ancient church. However, they used its sumptuous Baroque altarpiece from the main altar, four relieves, a corner-piece sink and the statue of Saint Michael, located today at the lateral exterior part and that names the street of the saint. The gorgeous altarpiece did not survive the damages of the Civil War (1936-1939) and it was destroyed.
The current main altar, made by architect Miquel Pallàs, was opened on the 16th August 1953.
