About Parish Church of the Nativity of Mary

This church serves as the spiritual heart of the village, located in the central Plaça de la Vila. While its origins are medieval, the current structure largely dates from the 17th and 18th centuries. It was fortified due to the historical threat of pirate attacks; indeed, the original village church was destroyed by raiders. The interior houses notable altarpieces, including a main altarpiece from 1787 representing the birth of the Virgin Mary. This historical landmark offers insight into both the religious and defensive aspects of Banyalbufar's past.
