History

The hermitage was originally a shrine dedicated to the Virgin Mary who appeared in the 16th century. At the onset, the temple consisted only of a roof and altar. Over the years, devotion by the local populace made it possible to build a church. A century ago, a group of nine hermits of the order of San Pablo and San Antonio settled in the complex and assumed responsibility for the shrine. Although they had to leave their voluntary seclusion to obey the order of the Bishop, the hermits inhabited the Ermita de Bonany until 1989, at which time their advancing age and scarce numbers forced them to leave.
