LOCATION: The town of Taüll, at an altitude of 1,482 metres, is located in the ancient road of Capdella. The town is formed by two centres, with the main area located near the church of Santa María de Taüll, and a second area which continues along an extended road, and takes us to the church of Sant Climent. BRIEF HISTORY OF SANT CLIMENT DE TAÜLL The church of Sant Climent is extremely similar to that of Santa María. It has three naves separated by cylindrical columns, with a wooden roof with two slopes, and three semicircular apses decorated by arches and half columns. The square belfry is made of six floors, five of which have windows with arches and columns. It is decorated on the outside with Lombard arches and jagged friezes which indicate the separation between the floors. The church of Sant Climent was sponsored by the Erill when they attempted to create a monastic centre in the valley. The church was restored in 1922 and 1970. During the most recent restoration, additional Romanesque paintings were discovered. Those which were found at the beginning of the century decorating the central apse and the walls of the chancel have been restored and transferred to the Museum of Art of Catalonia.
