Its altitude is {{convert|841|m}} above sea level. From Murgia, the road towards Vitoriano reaches the sanctuary.[1] The first known document mentioning it dates to 1138. {{anchor|Former settlers of the golden rocks}}HistoryLocal archeologists conducted four excavations from 1964 to 1967, and found evidence of human habitation in three eras. The oldest dates to the late Bronze Age (850-700 BC). A later community inhabited the area from 450 to 350 BC, followed by settlement during the later Roman Empire.[2] {{anchor|Composition|The sanctuary|Church|Evolution|Works and reforms in the sanctuary|Fires|The Virgin of Santa Maria of Gold|Santa Maria of Gold|Image of Our Lady of Gold|Legends concerning Santa Maria of Gold}}{{anchor|Festivities|Festivities concerning the sanctuary}}SanctuaryNothing remains of the original Romanesque church. According to some historians, the sanctuary dates from the late 11th century to the 12th century.{{citation needed|date=February 2015}} This is evidenced by its Romanesque images, similar to those in churches in the nearby villages of Domaikia, Markina-Xemein and Gillerna. The main church vaults were apparently constructed from the end of the 14th to the 15th century, with false plaster vaults in the sacristy dating to 1771. The church's Baroque altar, built by Antonio de Alvarado in 1691, was preserved after the 1964 renovation and the medieval statue of Our Lady of Gold was restored in 1930. There are two chapels, one dating to 1638 and the other to 1761.
