LOCATION The church is located on an elevated plain in the mountains which separate the Vic Plain from the Moianés region, at an altitude of 1,008 metres. To approach the church, take road N-141 from Manresa to Vic. When this reaches the town of Collsuspina, between kilometres 34 and 35, take a side road to the left which goes through Raval de les Casetes, up to Bellver and then continues to Sant Cugat. The section of the N-141 which leads to Sant Cugat is 2.8 km of good roadway. BRIEF HISTORY OF SANT CUGAT DE GAVADONS This church is found within the ancient boundary of the castle of Tona, in the area called Gavadons. Initially it was a separate parish. Later it was subordinate to the parish of Sant Andreu de Tona. In the nineteenth century it regained its independence along with the parish of Collsuspina. The area of Gavadons (Gavadones) is documented in 948 in the testament of the archdeacon Guadamir, who left two oxen which he had in Gavadons in Sant Pere de Vic. During its early years, the name of the church of Sant Cugat did not include the reference to Gavadons. It was known as Sant Cugat de Coll-sa-Sima. Nevertheless, the first documented reference is not stated exactly as this either. The testament commissioned in 968 by a woman named Frugió mentions the donation of a parcel of land to Sant Cugat (ad Sancto Cucufati qui est trans ipsa terra). It is cited as a parish in the list for the years between 1025 and 1050, and as of 1130 it is referred to as Sant Cugat de Gavadons. Before 1130 it must have lost its parish functions and been joined as a subordinate to the parish of Sant Andreu de Tona. It is not mentioned in the repeated pastoral visits made by the Bishop of Vic, Galceran Sacosta, to the parishes of the area between 1330 and 1339. This point is also confirmed by the fact that its name does not appear in any of the lists of parishes for the years 1346 and 1438. DETAILS OF THE CONSTRUCTION The church of Sant Cugat de Gavadons is formed by a single nave with two side chapels which were added later on. There are no remains of the apses in the head of the church. This area is formed by a rectangular chancel to which a sacristy was added, separated from the chancel by a thin wall. At the foot of the nave there is a transverse arch which supports the belfry. The location of the door, recently reopened, and the elevation of the roofs, seem to indicate that this section was added. The belfry has a single floor. Its plan is square and occupies half of the width of the nave. It has two windows facing west and one facing east, in a modern horseshoe shape. The wooden roof and the tiles are on two slopes. The main door is rectangular and is located on the main facade. Above the door there is a small circular window. The side chapels were covered with Gothic spire designs decorated with animal motifs and ribs. Recently they have been restored by the Cataloguing and Conservation of Monuments Service of the Diputación (Regional Government) of Barcelona. Scale: 1:50
