Church of Saint Esteve

The Romanesque Church of Saint Esteve was significantly altered in the twentieth century. The semi-circular apse, which represents the Romanesque mural paintings presently distributed between the Catalan National Art Museum and two private collections, dates from the Romanesque periods. The figure of a winged bull, the Marriage of Cana, and Christ before Pilate are just a few of the pictorial complex's parts conserved in the Catalan National Art Museum.


Inside the temple, there is a multi-coloured wooden beam from the same period and two baroque altarpieces. Of particular note too is the "Painting of the Souls" from the 18th century. Outside, you can see the semi-circular apse preserving its original Lombardian decoration, and the bell tower and Romanesque tower. The restoration made in 1940 by the modernist architect Josep Puig and Cadafalch focused on remodeling the bell tower and the present side entrance.
