Hermitage of Santo Cristo
Disturbing winged beings decorate the walls of this strange abandoned hermitage.

Inside a hexagonal chapel, under a cracked dome decorated with flowers, 21 sinister-looking winged beings with sharp teeth adorn the rickety walls. Abandoned in the 18th century, it was used as a cemetery until 1928. # Why Go ✨ Unique architectural style with a rare pyramid crowning the church 🎨 Intriguing sgraffito technique depicting winged beings and other figures 📜 Historical site with former cemetery niches and bone fragments 🤔 Mystery surrounding the 'bad angels' and apotropaic rites # Why Avoid ⚠️ Site is in ruins, risk of tripping and collapse 🚫 Advisable to ask for permission to enter the property # Tips 🚗 Best way to get here from Cáceres is by taking the EX-390 road to Talaván.
