Vallcebre
Barcelona · Cataluña
Vallcebre (Catalan pronunciation: [ˌbaʎˈseβɾə]) is a municipality in the comarca of Berguedà, Catalonia. It comprises two towns: Vallcebre proper, and the village of Sant Julià de Fréixens.
History
The town was first documented in the year 893, when it was mentioned as Balcebre in a document describing the consecration of the Cathedral of la Seu d'Urgell. By 983, a castle existed in the town, of which there is no trace today.
The municipality in former times was controlled in part by the Abbot of Bagà and the barons of Peguera. By the 15th century, it had become part of the possessions of the Foix family.
What to visit
La iglesia parroquial está dedicada a Santa María y es de construcción reciente, ya que fue edificada en 1931, declarada en ruina en 1991 y vuelta a construir en el 2000. Cerca del núcleo del pueblo se encuentra la pequeña iglesia de Sant Julià de Fréixens. Fue construida en el siglo XII y es de estilo románico. Es de nave única con bóveda de cañón. Ha sido restaurada en diversas ocasiones por lo que queda poco de la edificación original.
