One of the most outstanding mountains of the Alberes range is Puig de Salines. The Sanctuary and a refuge are located there at an altitude of more than 1.000 metres. The Mare de Déu de les Salines Sanctuary is a small white chapel with a courtyard at the front. A location providing unbeatable views of part of the Empordà Plain. The Refuge is next to it, made of stone and completely renovated. It is currently suitable for use by visitors to spend the night there. The architectural ensemble forms a solid block, located in a privileged area for its countryside and the landscape.
Couplets dedicated to the Virgin of les Salines that are part of the Frederic Marès and Deulovol Collection of the Empordà Museum in Figueres. They date from the first half of the 19th century and are couplets dedicated to Our Lady of les Salines and are sung in its hermitage chapel in the district of Maçanet de Cabrenys. Finally, it should be noted that they were printed in the city of Figueres by Antón Matas, the printer and bookseller located on the street, Carrer Peralada, as indicated at the bottom of the couplets.
