The shepherd, guiat per the llum that havia rebut of the cel return to the l'aparició i lloc there hi trobà of nou Mare de Déu. Aviat goes to arrive the notícia at Gandesa i molts anaren to venerate the Mare de Déu, fou traslladada també to l'església of Gandesa per ò l'endemà havia desaparegut i tornava to trobar - to the mateix lloc.

Balneari of Fontcalda

The legend:
It is said that in the vale there had the herd a pastorcito of Prat de Comte, which one day saw not very far of the source, an image about which nobody there was news and that insurance was hidden from the pursuits of Spain. The tradition affirms that the pastorcito had received a sign of the sky with this appearance, he took the image to Prat de Comte and communicated to the proprietors of the herd the news, but at the moment of extracting it of the shepherd's bag to teach it, the image had disappeared. The shepherd guided by the light that had received from the sky returned to the place of the appearance and there the Virgin found again. Soon the news came to Gandesa and many went to venerate it, moved it also to the Church of Gandesa but on the following day it had disappeared and it was again in the same place. Gandesa then raised a small chapel and later a church. (ftes i photos to see links of the card)
