Santa Llúcia de Sobremunt is located at the north-eastern end of the municipal district, dominating a wide panorama of the Plana de Vic and the Pyrenees. The church, documented in the 14th century, preserves Romanesque remains at the base of the temple. The current church (18th century) has a rectangular floor plan; it consists of a single nave, separated from the presbytery by a grate, and simply decorated in Baroque style. It has a bell tower with a gabled roof, and the west façade consists of a terraced atrium with two large semicircular arch openings (west and south). The access portal is interesting, framed with jambs and a molded stone lintel and has the date 1720, with an ashlar where a cross is inscribed. Above the cross is a rather damaged Gothic ashlar with a scene of the crucifixion, sculpted in bas-relief, in which four characters are distinguished and the crucified Christ, quite mutilated. The hermitage of Santa Llúcia, initially dedicated to Santa Llúcia and Santa Quitèria, was not documented until 1370; the Romanesque remains at the base of the temple, but indicate that either the chapel existed long before or there may have been a military watchtower in this place. The devotion to Santa Quiteria disappeared in modern times, leaving Santa Llúcia, the lawyer of the sight, as the only patron saint. It was formerly known as Santa Llúcia de Dalt in contrast to Santa Llúcia de Baix, located in Taradell, which was the focus of devotion in the southern sector of the Plana de Vic. we; in 1720 it was already done. In 1748 the house of the hermits was extended, attached to the temple. https://turisme.llucanes.cat/visiteu/esglesia-santa-llucia-sobremunt/

The sanctuary of the Virgen dels Munts is located in the Lluçanès sub-region at the junction of Osona and Ripollès. The building consists of the church and the inn. The church is a single nave covered with a transept vault, dated to the lintel of the entrance door in 1700. On the left side of the façade there is a bell tower, which can be accessed from from inside the church. The front door is protected by a porch that communicates with the inn, a rectangular building.
