The building's famous white facade is currently covered in yellow stains and cracks. Despite a private fundraising effort led by local residents to cover the restoration costs, the Bishopric of Girona has halted the project due to administrative complexities.
The required technical studies and municipal permits have created a bureaucratic deadlock. Donors had already pledged significant amounts to repaint the temple, which serves as both a religious site and a cultural hub for the town.
“"The church of Cadaqués is no longer white. It is the epicenter of our image, and it is not just an aesthetic issue; it is a matter of respect."
While the church remains an active center for arts and social gatherings, its exterior continues to deteriorate, leading to calls for urgent action from the Girona ecclesiastical authorities.
