Take a peek into this pretty church, tucked away in a town imbued with an incredible historic legacy.

La Ermita de la Santísima Sangre, La Santísima Sangre Chapel, is one of many historic landmarks dotted around Sagunto, a town with a Roman legacy that holds a surprise around every corner. Go sightseeing around the town and stop off at this quaint, Baroque church that dates back to the 17th century. The building’s distinct blue tiles and wrought iron dome cross define the urban landscape. Stumble across this charming church while on your exploration of Sagunto and climb up the grand entrance steps. Go chapel-hopping around Sagunto and visit those of San Cristóbal, San Miguel, San Roque and Santa María for a deep insight into the town’s religious past.

Dive into the town’s heritage and be blown away by its richness as you visit the Roman theatre first, then the castle. Continue on to the Jewish Quarter and save time to check out the historic landmarks by the port, such as El Grau Vell Tower or Fortress and the Blast Furnace No.2.
