The church of Sant Feliu in Barruera contains architectural elements from the two great periods of construction in the Vall de Boí: the 11th and the 12th century. The different kinds of building work in each century are evident in the two apses conserved at the church: the 11th century apse decorated with rounded arcading and pilaster strips and with irregular stonework that is very different from the ashlars from the 12th century apse.
The renovations carried out on the church and its furnishings reveal how the valley’s churches were gradually adapted to the tastes and needs of the community that has used them uninterruptedly since the 12th century.
