LOCATION: The church of Sant Climent, surrounded by the old cementery, stands on the side of the road to Isona at the end of the village. BRIEF HISTORY OF SANT CLIMENT DE COLL DE NARGÓ The village of Nargó, as it is named in some documents found at the end of the XVth. century, is presently called Coll de Nargó. It is quoted as being established in 1198 although its landmark exists since 988. It was then when Count Borrell, his wife and son permutated, with the bishop of Urgell and canons of Santa Maria de la Seu, the towns Cuvilare and Montanisell which are placed in the former landmark of Nargó. Nargone is therefore quoted in the record of consecration of the Cathedral of Urgell (Seo dUrgell). Santa Maria de la Seu and the monastery of Sant Serni de Tavèrnolas, as well as Santa Maria dOrganyà and Santa Cecília dElins, had vast possessions in the landmark of Nargó as it is quoted in the record of consecration of the latter which dates of year 1080. The Countess Sança, widow of Count Ermengol III, donated in 1065 her possessions in the landmark of Nargó to the collegiate church of Ager. In the year 1097 the jurisdiction of the castles and towns of the county of Abella passed -by donation of Count Ermengol IV dUrgell- on to the house of Caboet. Later on, in year 1185, the wedding between Arnaua de Caboet and Arnau de Castellbó led Nargó to pass onto a shared jurisdiction between the Counts of Urgell and the Viscounts of Castellbó. However, in 1287 the bishop of Urgell renounced to his rights on the landmark in favor of the Viscounty of Castellbó. While the church of Sant Climent was substituded in modern times by a new one also devoted to Sant Climent, the church of Sant Climent de Coll de Narbó was restored in 1930-1931 by the Old Arts Friends Association (Associació dAmics de lArt Vell) with the financial collaboration of the Bishopric of Urgell, the Deputation of Lleida and the people of Coll de Nargó. It was the secretary of the association, the architect César Martínez, who led the restoration of the most damaged parts of the construction. The walls were cleaned, the windows of the belfry -as well as those in the upper sides of the walls- were open and a cross-shaped window was constructed in the front façade. DETAILS OF THE CONSTRUCTION Although the structure of the construction is very simple, its different volumes and the accurate and strategically placed ornaments make the little church a beautiful one. Its only nave -orientated north-east- has a major apse on its end with two small protuberances, one on each side, which are joined to the main construction by half-point arches. The nave is covered by a 180º ceiling reinforced by several horseshoe arches and constructed with stone-slabs cut in irregular shapes and placed vertically. The apse has a 90º ceiling made with rows of small stones that get shorter towards the vertex. The prebysterium is placed at the highest point of the pavement which is also higher than ground-level. There is a protuberance along the walls that meets the two other situated in the apse where the belfry is located. Six windows, three placed in the apse, two in the south wall and one in the western façade, illuminate the interior. The five first are crowned by horseshoe arches. The temple has two horseshoe crowned entrances, one in the western side and the other in the southern. The latter one, however, is not presently used. The construction is not completely rectangular because the belfry is annexed to its northern side. The lower part of the belfry is of a square-based pyramid shape rising to form a retangular shape with a pyramid at top. Both lower and upper parts have windows on every wall. The lower are single horseshoe arch framed windows, while the top has three smaller windows together, separated by narrow columns which are joined by beautiful bracket capitals. On top of them, there is a frieze formed by a row of three false arches. This construction is covered with irregular-shaped stone-slabs. The lower part of the construction is formed by plain stones joined with big quantities of mortar while the upper part is made of regular-shaped blocks, as were used during the Romanesque period.
