Ermita de San Juan Bautista

It has a spectacular view, fresh surroundings, and a nice map for the blind. Hopefully there is information about the hermitage.

The hermitage is a rectangular building, made of whitewashed masonry and covered on the outside with Arab gabled tiles. Its current appearance is the result of profound transformations, although originally it would be a nave building, with a semicircular head, with Romanesque characteristics, oriented to the east. It had a semi-circular arched door located at the western end of the building, with an undamaged relief depicting a Pantócrator above it. The layout of the interior also corresponds to the original building, in a single nave, covered by a half-barrel vault supported by low-light, low-span arches, embedded directly into the wall. Later the building was reoriented and the Romanesque semicircular head was removed. The original door was blinded and the headboard was placed at the west end of the building, while a flat wall was built in the place of the old headboard in which a lintel access door was opened. The hermitage building has attached to its south side the volumes of auxiliary buildings, crowned on the side of the feet by a bulrush with an eye in a semicircular arch. The hermitage of San Juan was built in the Romanesque style during the 12th-13th centuries, with only the original portal, blinded on the western façade, remaining from this first moment, and its interior layout in a single nave covered by a half-barrel vault supported by arches. discounted. Its current appearance is the result of profound transformations carried out throughout history, mainly in the first years of the 20th century. From this hermitage, there are spectacular views of the Alcanadre river in the Cinca valley and, of course, the town of Ballobar.
