Sant Cristòfol de Beget, Romanesque church in Camprodon, Spain.

The church features a single nave with pointed vaults, transverse arches, and a semicircular apse adorned with an elaborate baroque altarpiece.

Built around 1200 under the direction of Sant Pere de Camprodon monastery, the church remained intact through centuries including the Spanish Civil War.

The interior houses an exceptional Romanesque crucifix, Gothic alabaster altarpiece, and multiple baroque pieces from the 18th century.

The church stands at 537 meters elevation and contains a 22-meter bell tower with four levels accessible through the southern entrance.

During 1938, local residents transported the church's Romanesque crucifix to Switzerland for protection, successfully returning it in 1940.
