The hermitage of Farners (Ermita de Farners) is one of the most revered churches in Santa Coloma de Farners. Despite being located outside of the town borders, with no less than a 15-minute drive from the town centre required, it's the preferred spot for weddings for many local couples.

Only a part of the original building constructed in the 12th century remains, including the nave and a semicircular apse. In the 18th century, the building underwent an expansion in the Barocco style.

The church was consecrated in 1200 and devoted to Mother of God of Farners (Mare de Déu de Farners).

Right next to the church stands another notable local sight, the Farners castle.
