La ermita de los Santos Médicos, San Cosme y San Damián, está ubicada en una de las zonas más altas del casco urbano, la más antigua. En el recinto donde se encuentra hay una biblioteca y un templete para tocar música.
La ermita tiene un balcón mirador con vistas al río y a la sierra del Oro. La fachada está adornada con mosaicos que ilustran a la patrona de Abarán la Virgen del Oro, al niño Jesús y al cuarto centenario de los Santos Médicos.
Parece ser que a principios del siglo XV ya existía una ermita dedicada a los Santos médicos Cosme y Damián. Los patronos de Abarán se encuentran en el retablo de la ermita y podemos encontrar el Cristo Crucificado del escultor José Planes.
The Hermitage of the Santos Médicos -Holy Doctors-, the patron saints of Abarán, can be found in one of the highest areas in Abarán. The walk up to the hermitage is a must for any traveller who wishes to enjoy a beautiful view of the valley and the Sierra del Oro, a natural beauty spot which this town shares with others in the surrounding area.
Apart from the church building itself, there is a small library and a bandstand which the bands use in September during the town’s festivities.
The primitive Shrine dates back from the 16th century but it has been rebuilt several times, the most recent being in 1953 when it was given the shape and size that it has today.
The outside of the building is decorated with mosaics showing La Virgen del Oro, Baby Jesus, and the commemoration of the four hundredth anniversary of the patronage of St Cosme and St Damian in Abarán.
Inside the building we can see several images such as those of St Cosme and St Damian, from the 17th century by an unknown author; Christ on the Cross by José Planes which dates from the 20th century and an image of Our Lady of the Beautiful Love by the sculptor Antonio Sánchez Lozano from the mid-20th century.
