Església de Santa Coloma d'Andorra, Pre-Romanesque church in Santa Coloma, Andorra.
The church features a rectangular nave, quadrangular apse, and a four-story circular Lombard bell tower rising against the Pyrenean mountains.
Built between the 8th and 9th centuries, this structure stands as the oldest church in Andorra, with significant modifications made during the 12th century.
The interior walls once displayed extensive fresco murals created by multiple artists from the School of the Master of Santa Coloma.
Visitors can access the church via route 3 of the Andorra Tourist Bus from June to September, with guided tours available at Espai Columba.
Modern video mapping technology projects recreated murals onto the church walls, allowing visitors to experience the medieval artworks in their original positions.
