Église de Haut-de-Bosdarros, church located in Pyrénées-Atlantiques, in France
Église de Haut-de-Bosdarros is the village church of Haut-de-Bosdarros, dedicated to Saint Joseph. It stands in the commune of some 350 inhabitants in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, in the former province of Béarn. The building has a single nave under a pitched roof, with a bell tower rising above the low houses around it.
The church is dedicated to Saint Joseph, as its alternate name, église Saint-Joseph d'Haut-de-Bosdarros, records. Haut-de-Bosdarros was created as a separate commune in 1856, when it was detached from Bosdarros, so the church served the new parish from that period onward. It stands as the village's parish church rather than a chapel.
Access is from the village center, which is easily explored on foot. Visitors should prepare for hilly terrain and changeable mountain weather.
