0.4 miles awayRomanesque church located near the Banyoles lake and consecrated in the twelfth century. Access to it is very easy, since it is next to the road, and has parking. From simple portal, the interior reveals that the main apse is formed by several little apses and two side chapels. There's a triumphal at the entrance to the chancel. To the right of the this little church is the rectory, and left the cemetery, with graves of past centuries, and a small covered space called comunidor, where in ancient times the priest blessed the four winds to wish for a good harvest.

Vilauba Roman Villa is located just over 1 kilometer south of Lake Banyoles, in the village of Camós, and was occupied between centuries II BC until the VII century A.C. Some objects and little statues that have been found here are showed in the Archaeological Museum of Banyoles, where guided tours are organised to visit this place. The site is fenced but it is visible clearly from the road. Of the remains preserved we infer that this villa was dedicated to make wine and olive oil.
