Ermita de San Marcos

The San Marcos Evangelista hermitage is located in Tiscamanita in the town of Tuinaje in Isla de Fueteventura As they happened with other religious constructions of the island, this one began under initiative of the own neighbors who demanded a place to realize their prayers. In principle it was a small chapel of modest dimensions and great simplicity.

The hermitage of San Marcos Evangelista consists of a single nave with three gables and tiles. To access the recito has 2 doors, the first of them on the main facade while the second is located on the south side, both have the characteristic that are topped by arches.

It also has 2 catwalks made in light colored stone, one of them located on the side of the gospel of rectangular shape, the second is smaller, they are located on the side of the Epistle.

Around the hermitage there is a crenellated wall with two bays that face towards the doors of the hermitage. Noteworthy is the San Marcos altarpiece, recently restored, and presided over by a carved image of Santo Domingo.
