Santa Maria de Taull Church

View from below of the ceiling of Santa Maria de Taull Church, 1123, consecrated by Ramon Guillem, the bishop of Roda, Taull, Province of Lleida, Catalonia, Spain. The roof, of two sheds, is built of wood. The cylindrical columns separating the nave from its aisles have no capitals. The church was heavily renovated in the 18th century. Its frescoes were removed to the MNAC (National Art Museum of Catalonia, Barcelona) circa 1918. Santa Maria de Taull Church is part of the Catalan Romanesque churches of the Vall de Bo which were declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in November 2000. Picture by Manuel Cohen
