Culture and History
The Church of Sainte Eulalie in Fuilla was consecrated in 1031 and classified as a historic monument in 1965. It is a well-preserved example of 11th-century Romanesque architecture. Inside are wooden statues from the 15th century that were found almost complete and nearly undamaged; the reclining Christ is less well preserved. The statues are listed as historic monuments. The church can be visited by prior appointment.
The Chapel of Saint John the Baptist also bears witness to Fuilla’s long history: it was first mentioned in 1198. The chapel houses the 14th-century marble sarcophagus of Jaubert de Fuilla, which was classified as a historic monument in 1903.
