Sant Nazari de les Olives Chapel
Highlight • Religious Site
The church of Sant Nazari is located in the village of Les Olives, about two kilometers northwest of the town of Peralada. It is an isolated building, of a nave with a semicircular apse, which has undergone numerous modifications over the years. The access door is located on the south side wall; it's a distant opening, very simple. In the apse, which preserves an old roof of slabs, there is a semi-circular arched window, and in the front a small elongated opening. The nave, with the walls hidden by the plastering, is covered with a flat brick vault, and the apse with a quarter-sphere vault. The triumphal arch is half point. The steeple bell tower, which rises to the right of the facade, has a single opening
The temple of Sant Nazari is a Romanesque building, probably from the 12th-13th centuries, although it has undergone numerous modifications in various periods. The remains of the primitive construction are at the head; the nave does not preserve any elements corresponding to the medieval period

Sant Martí del Far Church and Castle
Highlight • Historical Site
It is a single nave church with a rectangular apse. The vault of the nave is pointed and followed, the presbytery has the same shape.
The cover, located to the west, has three semicircular arches in gradation, lintel and smooth tympanum.
The most remarkable element of this facade is the upper half-point arched window, of large dimensions and with saw-tooth decoration.
A saddle bell tower with two semicircular arches and an upper corsair supported by nine corbels complete this facade.
The walls of the apse rise above the level of its vault. In this area, on the roof, a set of long loopholes opens around this rectangular apse.
The upper part of the wall is finished by a corsera formed by small pointed arches.
The fortification of the apse and that of the bell tower on the front are from the same period as the rest of the temple; on the other hand, on the side walls of the nave are raised stone walls finished with rectangular battlements that correspond to a late reform, possibly from the 18th century.
On each of the side walls of the nave there are also five gargoyles and in the apse we find four with a very simple decoration.
The entire church presents a set of well-spaced ashlars that form perfectly consecutive rows.
In the upper part of the apse where the loopholes open there is a frieze made up of three rows of ashlars of a darker color that stands out within the monument as a whole.
The church of Sant Martí del Far has been documented since the 13th and 14th centuries.
It seems that it was rebuilt during the 13th century, when the Count of Empúries had the castle built.
It is a Romanesque temple that indicates the transition to the Gothic style.”
