Sant Romà de les Bons Church

This Lombard Romanesque church was consecrated on 23 January 1164, according to the deed of consecration found inside the altar.

Sant Romà de les Bons is a Lombard Romanesque church, consecrated on January 23, 1164, according to the act of consecration found inside the altar of the temple. Its floor plan is rectangular, with a semicircular apse, and it preserves a double-bell gable that occupies the entire western wall.

The entrance, located on the west façade, is adorned with a sawtooth frieze and protected by a later porch, from which you can enjoy a spectacular view of the valley. On the exterior of the apse, you can admire decorative Lombard arches and blind arcading.

Inside, the original altar is preserved, along with traces of the mural paintings that once adorned it. The paintings decorating the apse drum are reproductions of the originals, which are currently kept at the National Art Museum of Catalonia (MNAC).

On the upper part of the apse roof and on the walls and barrel vault of the nave, Gothic mural paintings can be seen, bearing witness to stylistic evolution through the centuries. Other notable elements include a 16th-century Gothic altarpiece and a 12th-century granite baptismal font, both adding historical value to this singular temple.

The church of Sant Romà de les Bons is part of the Transnational Candidature for UNESCO World Heritage under the title “Material Testimonies of the Construction of the Pyrenean State: The Co-principality of Andorra”. This candidature includes the seven parishes of Andorra, featuring seven churches and two archaeological sites, as well as La Seu d’Urgell Cathedral (Spain) and the Castle of Foix (France).
