The Church of Saint Stephen[1]
(in Catalan: Església de Sant Esteve) is a church located in the Príncep Benlloch square in Andorra la Vella, the capital of the principality of Andorra. It is a protected property registered in the Cultural Heritage of Andorra. It was built in the 12th century and then restored in the 20th century.
Originally Romanesque, it has been modified and enlarged on different occasions, the last and most important in the 20th century.
The Romanesque semicircular apse (13th century), the largest in Andorra, and the start of the nave walls have been preserved from the original work. On the outside, the apse presents a decoration made with a frieze and with arches and Lombard bands. The bell tower, with a square plan, is a slender three-story tower, without

The parish church of St. Stephen still contains original parts from the 13th century and is one of the most beautiful and famous sights of the capital of Andorra.

It is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful religious buildings in Andorra and is considered Andorran cultural heritage.
The interior of the church looks rather modest. Baroque decorative elements and a small but beautiful main altar are a major part of the adornment in the church building. The Romanesque wall painting depicting the apocalypse is definitely worth a closer look. The colorful stained glass windows, which were also used in the bell tower, give the interior of the church an unusual, warm glow.
The church is only open to visitors in July and August and only when there are no masses. Worship services are held all year round in the morning and in the evening, on Sundays also in the morning and at noon. The Esglesia De Sant Esteve can always be visited in the course of a mass celebration.
