Day 591 - 27/05/2015 : St. Jaume de Frontanyà Romanesque Church

The monumental Romanesque church of Sant Jaume is a protected historic-artistic monument from the 11th century, definitely tt's a must-see.

The 11th century Augustinian monastery church of Sant Jaume de Frontanyà is one of the county’s emblematic monuments. The Lombard-style decoration reflects the splendour of this large church with three enormous apses.

Capped with a barrel vault and dome, it is without doubt one of the most beautiful buildings in the county, not to mention one which conforms to a truly harmonious concept of Catalan Romanesque architecture. 

Are you willing to visit it?
