Sant Sepulcre de Palera, Romanesque monastery in Beuda, Spain

The Sant Sepulcre de Palera monastery features a basilica layout with three naves and semicircular apses, supported by rectangular pillars and barrel vaults.

The Benedictine priory received its consecration in 1085 from Bishop Berengar of Berga, with attendance from bishops of Barcelona, Carcassonne, Albi, and Elne.

The monastery achieved status as a pilgrimage destination where visitors could obtain indulgences equivalent to those granted for visiting the Holy Land.

The monastery maintains its church structure and several monastic buildings, while the cloister retains two arches with carved capitals displaying birds and human figures.

The exterior facade presents an unadorned design with a rounded arch doorway, four windows, and a bell gable containing two openings.
