The Monastery of ‘Santo Espíritu del Monte” (Holy Spirit on the Mountain)

 It was founded by the wife of Martin the Humane, following the pacification of Sicily. It has had various uses since then, and is currently used as a museum housing interesting works and documents. It is fundamentally a place of relaxation, tranquillity and peace. It has a pleasant inn run by the Franciscans, who have converted the surroundings into a recreational area for the many visitors, especially on weekends. The medieval tower located in the village centre is of Muslim origin. The tower forms part of the defensive construction and probably belonged to the Castle of Murviedro. It measures 25 metres and it is square. It is currently used as a municipal library. The Hermitage of Saint Michael dates from the 18th-century, with all the villagers participating in its construction. It is located on the hill next to the village. It is a very simple hermitage, notable for its chapel and its statue of the Archangel Michael.
