Description
The Ermita del Cocó is a small chapel at the entrance to Lloseta, a village nestled in the interior of Mallorca.
History & Significance
The hermitage was built in 1878 and is dedicated to the Virgin of Lloseta. According to local legend, a shepherd saw a bright light shining above some rocks near a cocó — a natural rock pool — and it is this story that gave the chapel both its name and its special place in the hearts of the community.
Location & Surroundings
The Ermita stands at Diseminado Coco 163, right at the entrance to the village of Lloseta. The Torrente Almadrà, which has its source in the Cuber reservoir, flows directly past the chapel and shapes the natural character of the surrounding area.
Who Should Make the Detour
The chapel is well preserved and makes for a peaceful stopping point on any excursion around Lloseta. It's easy to drive past without noticing it, but a short pause is well worth it — both to take in the modest little building itself and to enjoy the quiet surroundings.
