The Ermita de la Mare de Déu de la Vallivana dates from 1738 and is in Rococo style. The Virgin of la Vallivana is the patron saint of Picassent and her feast is celebrated on 8 September. The building preserves the decorative language of the Rococo, visible in the ornamentation and in the treatment of the interiors. The date of construction and the style place the hermitage at a precise moment in Valencian religious architecture. As a devotional centre, it articulates the patronal feast and the religious life of the municipality throughout the year.
