Ermita de San Isidro - Ventorros de Balerma, Iznajar, Córdoba, España - Signs of History on Waymarking.com

"Esta ermita dedicada a San Isidro fue construida a principios del siglo XX. Un arriero delante de la imagen del santo en la pequeña ermita hizo la promesa de construir una iglesia si le tocaba la lotería y, siendo afortunado en el juego de azar, fue demorando la promesa que había hecho. Pero un día tras salir ileso de un grave accidente en sus tareas agrícolas emprendió la construcción de una pequeña ermita en la aldea de Ventorros de Balerma. Fue finalizada la obra en 1908. La imagen de San Isidro que contiene en su interior data de los años cuarenta."

"This hermitage dedicated to San Isidro was built at the beginning of the 20th century. A mule driver in front of the image of the saint in the small hermitage made a promise to build a church if he won the lottery and, being lucky in the game of chance, he delayed the promise he had made. But one day, after emerging unharmed from a serious accident during his agricultural work, he began the construction of a small hermitage in the village of Ventorros de Balerma. The work was completed in 1908. The image of San Isidro that it contains inside dates from the 1940s."
