About the Church of Sant Cugat de Gavadons

The Sant Cugat de Gavadons church is located on a plateau in the Sierra, which separates the Plana de Vic from the Moianès region, at an altitude of 1,008 meters. To reach the church, one takes the N-141 road from Manresa to Vic, turning off near the village of Collsuspina at kilometers 34 and 35, then following the road through Raval de les Casetes to Bellver, and continuing on to Sant Cugat. The 2.8 km stretch from the N-141 to Sant Cugat is easily accessible.

The church consists of a single nave with three side chapels that were added later. At the head, there is a rectangular presbytery, to which the sacristy was added later, separated by a thin wall. There are no remains of apses. At the foot of the nave stands a main arch supporting the bell tower. The tower has a square base, taking up half the width of the nave, and features two windows facing east and one facing west, with the modern horseshoe shape. The gable roof is made of wood and roof tiles, and the main door is rectangular, located on the main facade, with a round window above it.
