Església de Sant Antoni Abat
The parish church of Sant Antoni Abat, whose foundation is documented in 1285 and whose first chapel was commissioned by Raimundo Escorna in 1289. A lawsuit of 1657 between the Royal Patrimony and the parish records the founding deed. The present temple, with an 18th-century facade, is the main religious monument of Rafelbunyol.
The Església de Sant Antoni Abat has a foundation documented in 1285, and its first chapel was commissioned by Raimundo Escorna in 1289. A lawsuit of 1657 between the Royal Patrimony and the parish records the founding deed, so the origin of the benefice is fixed in writing. The present temple, with an 18th-century facade, is the main religious monument of Rafelbunyol. The distance between the medieval foundation and the modern facade shows how many reforms the building has been through. Each of those documents and phases helps reconstruct the history of the parish.
