Village
Esterri de Cardós is a municipality of the Vall de Cardós, in the north of Pallars Sobirà, located on a western spur of the Serra de Costuix, on the right bank of the Torrent d'Esterri, at 1,212 metres of altitude. It has 63 inhabitants (INE 2025) and includes, besides the eponymous village, the settlements of Arrós de Cardós, Benante and Ginestarre; in 1847 the former municipalities of Arrós and Ginestarre were added to it. The 1553 fogatge (hearth census) recorded in Esterri one ecclesiastical hearth and seven lay hearths, about 40 inhabitants. It lives from livestock farming, forestry and tourism. It preserves the Romanesque parish church of Sant Pau i Sant Pere; in Arròs there is another, that of Sant Julià, and that of Santa María holds mural paintings now in the National Art Museum of Catalonia.
Church of Esterri de Cardós
Monument
Romanesque church of Sant Pau i Sant Pere in Esterri de Cardós (Pallars Sobirà, Lleida), located at the north-western edge of the village, on the slope forming the south-western foothill of la Punta. Built in the 11th century and documented since 1146, it has a semicircular apse with grouped blind arcades of Lombard tradition, a single nave covered with a barrel vault, a simple bell-gable and a square tower to the south-west that may have been an old defensive tower. It preserved a set of Romanesque mural paintings from the first half of the 12th century, with a Christ in majesty surrounded by the tetramorph and the apostles, and an altar frontal from the 12th-13th centuries, both now in the National Art Museum of Catalonia. It was declared a Cultural Asset of Local Interest in 2002.
