Image of Verges, not of the place itself.

Sant Pere de la Vall is a church in the municipality of Verges (Baix Empordà) included in the Inventory of the Architectural Heritage of Catalonia. It is a small building with a rectangular plan, with a single nave with a semicircular apse and a two-pitched tile roof, built of stone with buttresses at the ends of the side walls; on the main façade opens the round-arched doorway, with well-carved voussoirs and an upper drip moulding. It forms a unified architectural ensemble together with the fortified farmhouse of Can Rei and the rectory building. It is a Romanesque church of rural type, from the 11th century, with later remodellings; it is believed to have once been the parish of the district of Verges. On the interior walls it preserves 19th-century pictorial decoration.
