The ruins of the Old Church, also called the Blood, a name that caused the congregation of the Blood of Christ, which had its headquarters here. It is Romanesque, the thirteenth century, and suppose that the population in the Middle Ages are grouped around it. We say that ruins it is the only remaining building. But impressive ruins, which let you see the layout, the great rose window that appears intact, the boot of the arches, the robustness of the walls and the materials used for construction. Keep magnificent capitals and also remains of the circular staircase that climbed the bell tower. The name of the blood is determined by the type of stone used on Salou. The subject building for a hospital, and this fall, in 1937, the church collapsed on him. When this happened had been declared a Historic Artistic Monument.
