Sant Feliu de Barruera in the Vall de Boí

Sant Feliu de Barruera is a Romanesque church situated in the territory of Vall de Boí, a commune in the valley with the same name and Comarca of Alta Ribagorça in the north of Province of Lleida and the autonomous communities of Catalonia in Spain. The construction of Sant Feliu is believed to be in the 11th century, similar to the dates of Sant Climent, Taüll, Sant Joan de Boí, Santa Eulàlia d'Erill la Vall, and Santa Maria de Taüll.

In November 2000, the church was included in the world heritage site of UNESCO with eight other Catalan Romanesque Churches of the Vall de Boí. While the church was originally meant to be constructed in a similar manner to the other churches in Vall de Boí, the construction plan was not followed or the construction was modified significantly.

The church has a unique nave covering a barrel vault with a semi-circular apse in the east. The nave is divided into three bays, and the choir is marked by its triumphal arc. The nave is illuminated by three straight bays. In the north, there is a lateral chapel with a semi-circular apse doubling the principal apse. Outside the church, the principal apse is decorated with blind arcades and Lombard bands, while the lateral chapel is devoid of any such characteristics.
