Romanesque church built in the 10th century, whose portal is remarkable for the beautiful frieze that overhangs it in Le Boulou

Of the first Romanesque church built in the 10th century, only the monumental portal made of white Céret marble, classified as a historical monument, remains. This portal is especially remarkable by the very beautiful frieze overhanging it and sculpted by the master of Cabestany in the second half of the 12th century. It represents six scenes from the childhood of Christ: the Annunciation, the birth of Christ, the bath of the child, the adoration of the Magi, the flight to Egypt and the rest in Egypt. You should also discover the beautiful altarpiece inside the church.

Un édifice aux dimensions harmonieuses construit et remanié entre le 12e et le 16e siècle. Beau retable, statuaire intéressante et surtout, sur la nef côté nord, la prédelle de la chapelle de la Sainte-Croix (milieu du XVe siècle) représentant des scènes de la passion.
