Saint-André is a pretty Catalan village located on the northern foothills of the Albères. Close to the lively beaches of Argelès-sur-Mer and gateway to a rich hinterland, at the foot of the Albères massif, the village of Saint-André is a stopover full of charm and tranquility.
An ideal environment, with the beauty of the eastern foothills of the Pyrenees as a backdrop.

The Romanesque church of Saint-André

Built between the XNUMXth and XNUMXth centuries, it houses magnificent marble sculptures from the XNUMXth and XNUMXth centuries. Its preserved architecture makes it a perfect example of Catalan Romanesque art.
Passing through its doors is an incredible leap in time!
Not to be missed: the sculpted marble lintel dated from the 11th century – related to that of Saint-Genis-des-Fontaines – is one of the first Romanesque sculptures in Roussillon!
