Santa Maria de Siurana, Romanesque church in Cornudella de Montsant, Spain.

The Santa Maria de Siurana church features a single nave with a barrel vault ceiling and includes interconnected side chapels within its rectangular structure.

Built between the 12th and 13th centuries after Ramon Berenguer IV's troops arrived in 1154, the church received mention in Pope Anastasius IV's papal bull.

The church contains a wooden polychrome statue known as the Virgin of Water, which replaced the original piece stolen in 1979.

Located at an elevation of 736 meters, the church maintains its structural integrity with walls measuring 10 palms in thickness.

The south wall features a doorway with three archivolts surrounding a sculpted tympanum that depicts a crucified Christ with sun and moon motifs.
