Romanesque route - Monastery of Gualter
The romanesque art is considered the most genuine in Catalonia; the regions of Lleida preserve one of the most important historical and artistic conjuntos of Europe, due to its diversity and for its singularity and beauty.
In la Baronia de Rialb, the abundante of romanesque churches - twenty four in the area- makes this place an ideal paradise to know and to visit those monuments from the XI and XII century.
It stands out the romanesque church of Santa Maria de Palau or the Monastery of Gualter . The old Benedictine monastery of Santa Maria de Gualter was destroyed during the civil war, but it still preserves the walls on the perimeter, a part of the three apses and also the Romanesque cloister. A good exemple of the pass of the time.
