https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8nioZH4ktk Around the year 1390, three ascetic monks who came from the monastery of Montserrat, Bertomeu Caboters, Pere Tarasacó and Berenguer de Güell, founded the hermitage in a place called Font Aribosa, a source from which clean, clear water flowed. In this place they invoked Saint Caterina, but not before obtaining permission from the king of Aragon, owner of the village and the Montgrí mountain itself. The hermitage of Santa Caterina has undergone different reforms. We cannot forget that in 2004, a terrible fire burned the entire forest near the hermitage and a large part of the Montgrí massif, only some trees near the hermitage were saved from the burning. For many years the hermitage was inhabited by hermits who subsisted thanks to the garden and the water well. After their death, the City Council entrusted the administration of the hermitage to a board of four neighbors, who are currently in charge of its administration and maintenance.

The Montgrí massif culminates in the Montplà summit. Taking into account that the surrounding towns are at sea level, its 310 meters give it a 360 degree panoramic view. In addition, you can also see the archipelago of the Medas Islands.

Hermitage founded in 1392 by three hermit monks from Montserrat. The sanctuary has suffered different remunerations over the years, among which those made during the 17th and 18th centuries stand out, forming what is the current construction.
