Sant Feliu de Barruera, Romanesque church in Barruera, Spain.

The stone church features a central nave with a pointed barrel vault, two apses displaying different construction periods, and a bell tower on the southwest wall.

Construction of Sant Feliu de Barruera began in 1100, with additions in the 12th century and documentation from 1140 confirming its connection to the diocese of Urgell.

The pumice stone vault in the central apse and geometric medieval door bolt demonstrate the technical expertise and artistic methods of medieval craftsmen.

The church welcomes visitors from 10:00 to 14:00 daily, with extended hours until 20:00 during July, August, and Easter, except for specific holiday closures.

The central apse retains traces of original white lime lines that were applied to create an illusion of perfect stone joints typical of Romanesque architecture.
