Església de Sant Genís, Gothic church in Torroella de Montgrí, Spain

The church features a single nave with five sections, supported by pointed arches and adorned with intricate vault reliefs throughout its interior space.

Construction of the current church began in 1306 over a previous Romanesque temple that burned down in 1285, with final consecration taking place in 1609.

The church serves as a primary venue for the Festival de Torroella de Montgrí, hosting classical music concerts in its acoustically refined space.

Two entrances provide access to the church: the western Sant Genís portal and a southern entrance that replaced a former lateral chapel.

The structure includes two distinct bell towers: a square-based tower with a hexagonal top and an unfinished octagonal tower on the northern side.
