The current church at Sant Jaume in Sant Ramon, Spain, dates back to 1742, as indicated by a stone plaque on the main facade. However, a closer look at the building reveals remnants of an even older Romanesque church, preserved at the bottom of the northern and eastern walls of the current church. These remnants suggest that the original building was possibly a single-nave structure, possibly covered with a palm vault and a semi-circular apse raised on a high platform. Sant Jaume was the parish of the terme of the castle of la Manresana, documented since 1066.
