Lake Banyoles

Highlight • Lake

Lake Banyoles is the largest non-coastal pond, and whose water springs naturally, in Catalonia. The lake is a classic cycling destination in Girona, since one of the province's greenways reaches the town of Banyoles, and it also has a bike lane that allows you to go around the lake.

Església de Santa Maria de Porqueres

Highlight • Religious Site

⛪ Santa Maria de Porqueres – A Romanesque Jewel by Lake Banyoles

Perched on a gentle hill on the eastern shore of Lake Banyoles, the Església de Santa Maria de Porqueres is one of Catalonia's finest examples of 12th-century Romanesque architecture. Consecrated in 1182, this single-nave church features a semicircular apse, barrel vault, and intricately sculpted capitals that depict biblical scenes and symbolic motifs. Its façade is adorned with a striking portal, distinguished by 22 carved medallions and a series of arches, making it a standout among Romanesque churches.

The church's serene setting, surrounded by cypress trees and overlooking the tranquil waters of the lake, offers a peaceful retreat for visitors. Adjacent to the church stands a comunidor, a small open-sided structure historically used by priests to bless the surrounding lands and protect them from storms.

Tip: Easily accessible via cycling routes around Lake Banyoles, this historic site is a perfect stop for those interested in architecture, history, or seeking a moment of reflection amidst nature.
