sant climent de taüll


The Church of Sant Climent de Taüll, a jewel of Romanesque architecture nestled in the Catalan Pyrenees, is celebrated for its striking frescoes painted by the Master of Taüll. These artworks, particularly the vivid depiction of Christ in Majesty in the central apse, are considered masterpieces of European Romanesque art. While the original frescoes now reside in the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya in Barcelona, visitors to the church can still admire faithful replicas and experience the grandeur of the Romanesque style. The church itself, consecrated in 1123, stands as a testament to the religious and cultural history of Catalonia.
