Església de Sant Pere Màrtir, Escaldes-Engordany

Església de Sant Pere Màrtir, Escaldes-Engordany, Catholic parish church in Escaldes-Engordany, Andorra

Església de Sant Pere Màrtir is a granite Romanesque Revival church with a basilica plan: a central nave, two side aisles, a semicircular apse and a square bell tower. Its exterior carries Lombard Romanesque detailing, and the façade bears sgraffito by Sergi Mas on the Beatitudes.

The present church replaced an earlier building and was begun in 1956 to Josep Danés's design; Jordi Bonet i Armengol oversaw its completion in 1981. It was listed as an asset of cultural interest on 16 July 2003. On 8 November 2023 it hosted the state funeral of former prime minister Antoni Martí, presided over by episcopal co-prince Joan Enric Vives i Sicília.

The church is the parish church of Escaldes-Engordany, dedicated to Saint Peter Martyr, or Peter of Verona. A 17th-century Baroque altarpiece dedicated to the Immaculate Conception presides over the main altar, while a 16th-century retable from Sant Romà dels Vilars is kept in a side chapel. The facade has sgraffito by Sergi Mas depicting the Beatitudes.

The church is located in central Escaldes-Engordany and is easily accessible on foot, with doors open during the day. Visitors should wear respectful clothing and be mindful of times when services are taking place.

The three bells were named Maria, Anna and Jacoba by episcopal co-prince Joan Martí i Alanis in 1981, the year the building was completed. The church also holds a 17th-century Baroque altarpiece dedicated to the Immaculate Conception and a 16th-century retable from Sant Romà dels Vilars.
