Facts and practical information

The Ermita de los Tres Juanes is located in the Spanish municipality of Atarfe. It is on the Cerro del Castillejo, within the Sierra Elvira. It was built in 1941 and owes its name to the intention of dedicating it to Saint John the Evangelist, Saint John the Baptist and Saint John of God, although it never had the religious use conferred by its promoter. It has been restored during the 1990s and has been fitted out as a socio-cultural centre. It has a museum of Natural Sciences inside. It has also become a symbol for the local inhabitants as it is part of the heraldry of the municipality. It also has several species of birds such as ostriches, parrots, peacocks, etc..
