'San Jaime' Church (St James)

⛪ Church of Saint James and Saint Anne: History and Devotion in the Heart of Benidorm

At the highest point of Benidorm’s Old Town, atop Cerro Canfali, stands the majestic Church of Saint James and Saint Anne, dedicated to the patron saint of the city. Built in the 18th century, its distinctive Mediterranean blue dome makes it an unmistakable landmark in Benidorm’s skyline🏛️💙

🙏 A Place of Faith and Tradition

Inside the church lies one of the most beloved symbols of Benidorm: Our Lady of Suffrage, the patron saint of the city.

📜 A unique story: the small statue of the Virgin was found adrift in a boat at sea, an event that sparked deep devotion among the locals. Today, she rests in a beautiful chapel inside the church, becoming a place of pilgrimage and tradition for both residents and visitors⛪✨
