Palau Sator

  • Sant Julià de Boada
ST. JULIÀ DE BOADA

This church, which is firstly mentioned in a document in 994,is one of the most notorious and well-preserved pre-romanesque monuments of The Baix Empordà. It consists of a nave and a trapezoidal apse. On the façade there's a single splay window fitted in an arch formed by uneven sandslabs. The same material applies to the walls. There's a special particularity about the nave and that is its irregularity, visible both from inside and outside the building. From the inside there's a lack of adjustment between the chancel and the nave (on a lower level). On the other hand, small sand slabs unevenly placed-almost in an incipient "opus spicatum" form cover the floor.
