Sant Quirc de Durro
The Hermitage of Sant Quirc is located in a privileged setting, on the Durro mountain at an altitude of 1,500 metres. Its location is not random, but rather a territorial landmark linked to the social space worked on by the community and the pagan tradition of running falles. It’s a small 12th-century building with Baroque […]
L’Assumpció de Cóll
The Church of L’Assumpció de Cóll has its own characteristics that distinguish it from the other churches in the valley: the construction materials, the size of the ashlars and the decorative elements on the façade, the most interesting part of the church. To highlight the Chrismon and the sculpted capitals with depictions of fights between […]
Santa Maria de Cardet
Santa Maria de Cardet preserves one of the most spectacular apses in the valley. The church was built on the steep slope of the mountain, capitalising on the terrain’s unevenness to build a small crypt inside, the only one in the entire complex. Unlike the other churches in the valley, here the bell tower has […]
Nativitat de Durro
The monumental nature of the Church of La Nativitat testifies to the importance of the town of Durro in the Middle Ages. The large size of the nave, the bell tower, the sculpted façade and the porch are outstanding. The Romanesque church was remodelled on several occasions between the 16th and 18th centuries. These transformations […]
Sant Feliu de Barruera
In Sant Feliu de Barruera you can find architectural elements from the two great eras of construction in the Vall de Boí: the 11th and 12th centuries. The constructive differences between each century are evident in the two apses preserved in the church: the 11th-century apse, decorated with blind arches and Lombard bands and with […]
Sant Joan de Boí
Sant Joan de Boí is the church that preserves the most architectural elements from the first phase of construction that took place in the Vall de Boí in the 11th century. Basilica-shaped (like Sant Climent and Santa Maria de Taüll), Sant Joan de Boí boasts mural paintings decorating the interior of the naves, with scenes […]
Santa Eulàlia d’Erill la Vall
In Santa Eulàlia you’ll find one of the best bell towers in the valley, a slender square construction six floors high with the typical Lombard Romanesque decoration: blind arches and sawtooth friezes. Aligned with those of Sant Joan de Boí and Sant Climent de Taüll, the bell tower fulfilled the functions of communication and surveillance […]
Santa Maria de Taüll
The Church of Santa Maria was consecrated on 11th December 1123, one day after Sant Climent de Taüll, reflecting the importance of the resources that the Lords of Erill assigned to the Vall de Boí in the early 12th century. Located in the middle of the town, it’s the only church in the valley that […]
Sant Climent de Taüll
Consecrated on 10th December 1123 by Ramon Guillem, Bishop of Roda Barbastre, the Church of Sant Climent de Taüll was built on top of an 11th-century place of worship. It’s the prototype of a basilica-style Romanesque church with its three naves separated by pillars, a gabled wooden roof, a chancel with three apses and a […]
