Capella de Sant Sebastià

At the street of La Capella, near the town of Ordal. It is a private property. It is named for the first time in the year 1414.

From the little documentation found we can conclude that a chapel exixted in the fifteenth century, which was possibly even older, which in the seventeenth century was built under the surveillance of Sant Pau, rebuilt in the seventeenth century, and, according to the date of the façade, the work was finished in 1782. It is almost like we find it now, since few modifications were made, at least exteriorly, since then and until now. Its arquitectural style is typical for rural works, where money was not so abundant, it is an atypical work of the barroc period.

Its ground plan is rectangular, the absis facing east is straight. Three buttresses at each side of the building. Toral Arch with nerved turns. Forming half-point lateral archs. Two-slope roof which covers the turn with Arabian tiles. Its interio is simple, without any remarcable architectural element. The great barroc altarpiece at the major altar stands out, very well finished, with the image of Satn Sebastià, nowadays the dedication of the chapel. “Cadireta” bell tower, of only one opening, on top of the façade. The entrance door has a segmental arch, made of worked stone.

Semi-detached to the absis, comes a group of habitable houses, one of which with a half-point door with great keystones, which was the boarding house of Ravella. The wall facing south of the Chapel is closes by another wall, forming a little courtyard.
