This church was erected to Sant Sebastià for having saved Molló from the plague that ravaged Europe in the Middle Ages. The "Goigs de Sant Sebastià de Molló" (Joys of Saint Sebastian of Molló) are preserved, and to this day, a novena mass is still celebrated for 9 days before the festival of the Saint (January 20th), during which the people of the town sing them.
The parish of Molló or "Mollione" is documented as early as the year 936. It initially belonged to the diocese of Girona and was under comital rule. In the late 11th century, construction of a new bell tower began, and the base of this tower was used to build the current church in the early 12th century. In 1141, the Ripoll Monastery, which already held domains in the area, obtained full possession of the territory, and from 1144, it also acquired possession of the parish and its rights through the bishop of Girona's cession. This possession was confirmed to the Monastery of Santa Maria de Ripoll by a papal bull from Pope Alexander III in 1167. Construction of the current church likely began a few years later. Since 1952, it has undergone exterior cleaning works, and retaining walls have been constructed in the southern and eastern sectors.
Església de la Mare de Déu de les Neus d'Espinavel
was built at the end of the 17th century in a very rustic and popular style, although the interior was decorated with false brick vaults, all plastered, and possibly ornamented. None of this remains due to a recent restoration carried out by the architect Joan Maria de Ribot. The same fate befell the two lateral chapels, which have now disappeared, and have become two spaces inside the church with no specific function.
