The Paller Sanctuary is a historic building in the municipality of Bagà that was built between 1747 and 1748. The old sanctuary was in the Paller de Dalt farmhouse, where there are still remains of the church, already mentioned in the year 1200 and had many devotees. It depended on the monastery of Bagà and the original church was still rebuilt in 1687.
In 1747 construction of the current sanctuary was started according to the plan of Francesc Morató in the area of Paller de Baix, two kilometers from the town of Bagà, in a cozy, quiet and serene beauty, near of the so-called Fountain of the Bathers (hence it is also known as Santa Maria dels Banyadors), where it was customary for the devotees to bathe and to bring water considered miraculous.
