History
The restored Church of Saint Saturnin dates back to around the 10th century. A document signed by Bernard Adalbert de Campmany proves the church’s existence in 1142. Saint Saturnin is Romanesque in style and has a single-nave layout.
Behind the church, architectural remains of the former Palau have been preserved in some houses and on some walls.

A historic trail in Tresserre runs alongside one of the Ways of St James.
