EGLISE DE SANT MARTI D HIX
Read moreThe church of Saint-Martin d'Hix is a jewel of Romanesque religious art located in the hamlet of Hix in Bourg-Madame, Cerdagne, Pyrénées-Orientales. Built in the 12th century, it bears witness to the region's glorious past. Catalan kings came to Hix when threats from Toulouse called them to the limits of their territories. This Romanesque church is an architectural masterpiece, with finely carved capitals and a cornice adorned with sculpted modillions. Inside, you can admire a 12th-century Virgin and Child, a 13th-century Romanesque Christ, a 16th-century Saint-Martin altarpiece and a Baroque altarpiece on the high altar. These artistic treasures bear witness to the devotion of the people of Hix through the centuries.
