The Church of Sant Jaume de Viladrover is a Romanesque work in Brull (Osona) protected as a Cultural Property of Local Interest.

Sant Jaume de Viladrover or dels Bastons is isolated, near a farmhouse, 2 km from Balenyà. It is a one-nave building, covered with a barrel vault with lunettes and toral arches, topped by a semicircular apse decorated with arches under a sawtooth frieze built at the beginning of the 20th century. On the north side, the body of the sacristy was added. It preserves the original door in the south wall, with a semi-circular arch with two-tone shutters, all of which have been blinded. The current access is on the west facade where there is a rectangular door under a 17th century semicircular pediment and a cross-shaped window. The most remarkable thing is the slightly rhomboid bell tower, three stories high, which rests on the vault at the west end of the nave. Despite the modifications from the Baroque era, it preserves some of the twined Romanesque windows with column and crescent capital and the decoration of arches under the Lombard-type saw-tooth frieze.

Whenever I pass by this place I stop to see how the Piineu looks in the distance, the Roc Gros, Puigsagordi, etc.
