The son of a wealthy castellan named Macarius deliberately isolated himself high in these mountains, far from civilization as a self-inflicted penance after mistakenly killing his father during a hunt. Against all odds, Macarius lived to old age. His ability to survive, along with his peculiar ability to carry glowing embers with his bare hands, made him a local legend. This chapel was built in the place where he lived and a mass is celebrated on the last Sunday of July in his memory.
