Hermitage of Santa Ana

The Hermitage of Santa Ana, located at the top of Canillas de Albaida, has its origins in Al-Andalus times, with its tower and the wall to the NW as the oldest structures. Initially a fortification, it was eventually transformed into a Christian temple. It is first mentioned in the Libro de Apeo y Repartimiento of 1572, where it is referred to as "the castle of the town". Subsequently, it was represented in the Cadastre of the Marquis of Ensenada in 1752, showing the changes it has undergone over time. Its buttresses and the dome over the tower stand out.
