Church, buildings and Roman finds

The present-day Sant Vicenç Church stands in the centre of Valveralla. Can Marisch is a Gothic-Renaissance building from the 16th century and offers three independent rural accommodations: Casa Pairal, Les Corts and Les Arcades.

The former Sant Vicenç de Valveralla Church stood about 200 metres west of Valveralla on Pedró Hill, which is also called Església Vella. The building of Sant Vicenç de Valveralla consists of a single nave with a barrel vault and lunettes, a straight-ended chancel and side chapels between the buttresses. The high altar features a neoclassical stucco altarpiece from the 18th century with wood carvings of Saint Sebastian, Saint Christopher and the Virgin Mary. There is also a house with a voussoir doorway on Carrer de la Verge. Several Roman finds have been documented in the Valveralla area.
