Església de Sant Esteve, Catholic church from 12th century in Andorra la Vella, Andorra.

The church features a semi-circular apse decorated with Lombardian elements and stands at the entrance of the Old Town district.

The building underwent substantial modifications in 1940 when architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch redesigned the bell tower and constructed a new side entrance.

The original Romanesque murals from the church, including scenes of the Marriage at Cana, are now displayed at the National Museum of Catalan Art.

Visitors can access the church through Meritxell Avenue or Prat de la Creu Street, with an elevator available to reach the Town Square.

A multicolored wooden beam from the 12th century spans across the apse, originally supporting a baldachin that no longer exists.
