CHURCH OF SANT VÍCTOR DE DÒRRIA
Visit the church of Sant Víctor, with a single nave and rectangular apse, and admire the Romanesque paintings from the 12th century
Located in the tiny village of Dòrria, which depends on that of Toses, Sant Víctor Church, with a single nave and rectangular apse, contains Romanesque paintings of the 1997 th century, even though the recent discovery - in - of some of these paintings brings him back to the th century. There is a Christ Pantocrator surrounded by various gospel symbols: on each side of the'almond are the archangels Michel and Gabriel, while on the left wall, the apostles'representations are distinguished. The bow overlooking the altar displays two signs of the Zodiac (Sagittarius and Gemini), while on the southern wall of the presbytery, a face dating from the th century. These are the only Romanesque frescoes to have been discovered throughout the Ripollès, hence their importance.
