The crumbling Spanish chapel of Presquiró, known officially as Sant Isidre de Presquiró, hides in plain sight. Built with irregular and only partially well-cut stones, the current remains of Sant Isidre de Presquirio are very few. It was a chapel of the parish of Sant Salvador de Toló, recorded as a dependent church in 1758. However, in 1904, it was still recorded as part of the same parish. Sant Isidre de Presquiró is located at the caseria of Presquiró in Gavet de la Conca, Catalonia. The church was built with irregular and only partially well-cut stones. The best preserved part of the church - and only in some rows - is the southern part, which includes the southwest corner (opposite the place where the apse would have been). The watchtower remnant is hidden in plain sight – blend in with the crumbling façade.
