Town of Garòs

Located at an altitude of 1,115 metres, Garòs is located at the foot of the Espiargo mountain, on the right bank of the Garona River. Among the main attractions of this small town are the necropolis with paleo-Christian remains and the church of Sant Julià. Of Romanesque origin and reformed in the 15th century, it has a bell tower from 1619 that emulates a defense tower.

In front of the church you can see the bust of Mossèn Jusèp Amiell, the work of the Aranese sculptor Gloria Corona Socasau in recognition of the entire career of this honorable resident of Garòs who, among others, was awarded the Lengua Viva Prize in 2004, the Medal Gold from the Conselh Generau d’Aran in 2010 and the Cross of Saint George from the Generalitat of Catalonia in 2012.
You cannot miss visiting the “Pleta de Garòs” urbanization, winner of the FAD (Development of Decorative Arts) award for its excellent construction in the Aran hut style.
