Erill la Vall, Vall de Boí, Lleida, Catalonia, Spain: cloister and base of tower of the Romanesque church of Santa Eulàlia de Erill la Vall. The church was built in the 1000s and the tower added in the 1100s. The tower is decorated in the Lombard Romanesque style with rounded arcading and sawtooth friezes. Vall de Boí lies in the Pyrenees in north-eastern Spain, on the edge of the Parc Nacional d’Aigüestortes. The Moors did not reach the high valleys of the Pyrenees and from the 800s AD land in this area was organised into counties that were in theory subservient to Frankish overlords. However, in the 900s, the counties distanced themselves from the Carolingian Empire and eventually achieved political and religious independence. At the end of the 1000s, feudal lords in the Vall de Boí, the Lords of Erill, took part with Alfonso the Warrior, King of Aragon, in campaigns to reconquer land, including Zaragoza (1118). The Lords of Erill then used resources from war booty to promote the building of churches. As a result, Vall de Boí has a high concentration of Romanesque churches and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. D1192.B4230
