Church of Sant Martí de la Cortinada

The village of La Cortinada is one of Andorra's most appealing little settlements. The picturesque 12th-century Church of Sant Mart de la Cortinada (Església de Sant Mart de la Cortinada) is located in the settlement, which is surrounded by meadows and steep mountains. The Romanesque frescoes, charnel-house, and lovely ancient dovecot distinguish this well-preserved medieval chapel of worship. Locally created excellent wrought-iron railings, a vividly painted wooden altarpiece, numerous fine pieces of intricate furniture, and a confessional were later additions from the 17th and 18th centuries.

El Serrat, a charming village worth visiting, is another place worth seeing. This mountain community, located at the end of the road that runs through the Valira del Nord Valley, is in a stunning setting and makes for an excellent base for exploring the surrounding region. It's popular with birdwatchers, hikers, and those interested in alpine flora. In the winter, downhill skiing and snowboarding, as well as Nordic skiing and snowshoeing, become popular hobbies.
