Ermita de San Francisco
A neo-Gothic chapel built by the neighbours between 1919 and 1921 and blessed in October 1922, on the site of a short-lived chapel that replaced the one at La Ràpita, documented in 1603. It preserves an altarpiece by Vicente Macip and is completed by a calvary of fourteen chapels and a viewpoint over the Gulf of Valencia.
The Ermita de San Francisco is a neo-Gothic building that the neighbours of Nàquera constructed between 1919 and 1921. The chapel was blessed and inaugurated in October 1922. Inside it preserves an altarpiece by Vicente Macip. The ensemble is completed by a calvary of fourteen chapels, which accompanies the visitor's route. The neighbourhood initiative explains the character of the building, raised with the effort of the local population, and the date of the blessing places its opening in the early decades of the 20th century. The calvary completes the devotional meaning of the ensemble.
