Sant Julià d'Altura, Medieval parish church in northwestern Sabadell, Spain.
Sant Julià d'Altura stands on a ridge at 303 meters elevation between the Matadepera road and the Ribatallada stream ravine.
The first documented reference to this parish church appears in a testament dated April 25, 1055, mentioning bequests for masses at churches including Sant Julià.
Archaeological excavations in 1990 revealed a medieval necropolis containing 27 skeletons from the 12th century, along with bronze coins and ritual pottery.
Access to the church requires following a path starting at kilometer 4.1 on the road connecting Sabadell with Matadepera.
The building incorporates elements from three architectural periods: Romanesque foundations, Gothic portal materials, and a Baroque bell tower completed in 1693.
