Romanesque Heritage
One of the main characteristics of this ensemble of the 8 churches and the hermitage of Sant Quirc de Durro around Vall de Boi is the common architectural style. The temples were all built during the 11th and 12th centuries. The Romanesque churches of Vall de Boí are the artistic reflection of a society which was structured around the hierarchies of feudalism and clergy, in this case personified in the Lords of Erill and the bishopric of Roda de Isábena, the promoters of these temples. You will feel the legends around these churches and be part of the history.

Recommendations
Come any time of the year. Spring and summer seem to be the ideal time because the temperatures are warm and the sun shines spectacular. But autumn brings an explosion of colours in the nearby forests and winter cover the landscape in white and fills the surrounding with a magical atmosphere. It is essential to bring comfortable clothes according to the time of year and an umbrella.
