Garòs

Member of Los Pueblos más Bonitos de España

·

On the right bank of the Garonne in the Val d'Aran, Garòs sits at 1,115 m at the foot of the Espiargo mountain, between two ravines. At its heart stands the church of San Julián, Romanesque in origin and thoroughly rebuilt in the 15th century, with a bell tower of 1619 so broad it looks like a defensive keep.

Highlights

  • Church of San Julián, with its massive 1619 bell tower
  • Inside the church: a carved Christ, a Gothic Virgin and a silver processional cross
  • Village festivals on 16 August for San Roque and 28 August for San Julián
