Comments

It is located 10 minutes from the town of Canillo. The cross, from the 16th century, is Gothic and is the most original of the Andorran crosses. On one side is the crucified Jesus of whom, despite the reduced dimensions, the anonymous artist has clearly sculpted the fingers and toes and the features of the face. The Virgin is sculpted on the other side. It has a low pedestal, superimposed on a horizontal and rounded stone that covers a small niche.
