Église Saint-Pierre de Mérens-d'En-Haut, Romanesque church in Mérens-les-Vals, France.
The Saint-Pierre church features a square bell tower with three levels, displaying double openings on each side in Catalan-Andorran style.
The church was given to the abbots of Sainte-Marie de Lagrasse in 994 by local lords, receiving papal confirmation in 1118.
The church represents tenth-century religious architecture of the Ariège region, with its trefoil plan nave and regional construction methods.
The church stands at 1153 meters altitude along Route de Vives, accessible via the D332 road above the Nabre stream.
In October 1811, Spanish Miquelets under General Villamil set fire to both the church and village during the Peninsular War.
