Santa Fe de Calonge

Monument · Calonge de Segarra, Anoia, Barcelona

Santa Fe de Calonge stands surrounded by trees, at the foot of the hill where the ruins of a castle rise, in Calonge de Segarra. It is a 12th-century Romanesque church, with later Baroque reforms to the roof and chancel, dedicated to Saint Faith, virgin and martyr of Aquitaine from the 3rd century. It has a single nave with a transept and a dome over the crossing; the presbytery, square in plan, has two apsidioles, one in each arm of the transept. Notable features include the western portal, with an archivolt, and the hexagonal bell tower, a later addition, raised above the dome. Attached to it is the large rectory house, which preserves arches and an enclosure on its south side. It is a Bien Cultural de Interés Local (local-level heritage protection).
