Among the various types of constructions and dwellings that can be found in l’Horta of  Valencia one can also find those dedicated to Catholic religious functions, and some of them are even located in the “Francs i Marjals” territory of the city of Valencia.
Basically, they can be classified into churches, hermitages, and monasteries-convents, although in this space of l’Horta there is only representation of the first two. Historically, and within the particular area of the city of Valencia, until the beginning of the 20th century there were no parishes outside the city centre, and it was these that extended their ecclesiastical jurisdiction over the various rural areas of l’Horta. In the case of “Francs i Marjals”, the titular parish was for centuries that of Sant Valero of Russafa and there were no churches as such in this part of l’Horta of the city.
However, from the 18th century onwards, and especially from the 19th century onwards, partly due to the population growth of this whole area, several chapels were built, such as the chapel of Fiscal, in the area of Pou de n'Aparisi, and the chapels of Sant Josep and Sant Antoni more towards the area of Castellar, although the latter two disappeared following the construction of the new course of the Turia River to the sea.
Similarly, with the process of urban agglomeration in the area of La Punta, Font de Sant Lluís, Castellar and Oliveral, the first churches were built in the parish of Russafa in the 20th  century, but they have ended up being independent parishes as they exist today.
