Sant Jeroni d'Argelers, anomenat habitualment simplement Sant Jeroni, és una ermita del costat del santuari de Nostra Senyora de Vida, del terme comunal d'Argelers, a la comarca del Rosselló, de la Catalunya del Nord.

Està situada[1] a la zona central-occidental del terme, a més de dos quilòmetres i mig al sud-oest en línia recta del nucli principal de la vila d'Argelers.

No hi ha dades documentals d'aquest edifici anteriors al 1688, tot i que alguns historiadors l'han volguda vincular amb una capella dedicada a sant Jaume esmentada el 1068, que no s'ha pogut identificar fins ara.

Sant Jeroni d'Argelers, anomenat habitualment simplement Sant Jeroni, és una ermita del costat del santuari de Nostra Senyora de Vida, del terme comunal d'Argelers, a la comarca del Rosselló, de la Catalunya del Nord.

It is located[1] in the central-western area of the region, more than two kilometres away and is located in the south-west in a straight line from the main town of Argelers.

There are no records of this building prior to 1688, although some historians have linked it to a chapel dedicated to Saint James built in 1068, which cannot be identified for this purpose.

Girona - Sant Pere de Galligants

Martin M. Miles has posted:

The Benedictian monastery Sant Pere de Galligants was built, outside the city walls, from 962. The monastery in 1117 was united to the Abbey of Sainte-Marie de Lagrasse (now France, 170kms north), but kept an own abbot and so at least some autonomy.

In 1362, when the monastery was enclosed within Girona´s city walls, it was redesigned to a more defensive shape. It started to decay from the 15th century, and in 1592 it was united to the also crumbling monasteries of Sant Miquel de Cruïlles and San Miguel de Fluviá. In 1835 the monastery was given up, the abbot and the last four monks left, so in 1857 the Museu d'Arqueologia de Catalunya moved into the empty buildings.

Using the remains of on older church, the construction of the three nave basilica, seen here, facing to the main apse, started in 1130. As this is a museum now, there is no furniture inside.

Il cielo in una stanza - GINO PAOLI
sposto a oggi un vecchio post come Omaggio a un poeta della canzone che ci ha lasciato il 24 scorso ...
Lyrics:

Quando sei qui con me
Questa stanza non ha più pareti
Ma alberi, alberi infiniti
Quando tu sei vicino a me
Questo soffitto viola, no, non esiste più
Io vedo il cielo sopra noi che restiamo qui
Abbandonati come se non ci fosse più
Niente, più niente al mondo
Suona un'armonica
Mi sembra un organo
Che vibra per te e per me
Su nell'immensità del cielo
Per te, per me
Nel cielo
Suona un'armonica
Mi sembra un organo
Che vibra per te e per me
Su nell'immensità del cielo
Per te e per me
Nel cielo

Monestir de Santes Creus

The Monastery of Santa Maria de Santes Creus (Catalan: Reial Monestir de Santa Maria de Santes Creus) is a Cistercian monastery in the municipality of Aiguamúrcia, Catalonia, Spain.

This is the dormitory, a large (c. 46 x 11 m), undecorated hall without any partitions for the monks, who, initially slept on straw mattresses lying on the floor. The wooden rafters are supported on a series of ogival stone arches that spring from corbels in the side walls.

France - Catalogne - Prats de Mollo
Église Saintes Juste et Ruffine
Le 7 des calendes de juillet 982, une église dédiée aux saintes Juste et Ruffine est consacrée par Hildesind, évêque d'Elne, en présence d'Oliba Cabreta, comte de Cerdagne et de Besalú, de sa femme et ses fils, qui est à l'origine de la paroisse de la villa Pratis.
L'augmentation de la population a obligé de construire une nouvelle église, consacrée le 23 avril 1245 par Bernat de Berga, évêque d'Elne.
Au XVIIe siècle, l'église romane est jugée trop petite car il y a alors 1 200 fidèles. Les consuls et les conseillers de la ville décidèrent en 1648 de modifier l'église paroissiale. Les plans de la nouvelle église sont faits par Antoine Doldon, architecte de Perpignan. L'église est construite par Guillaume Fara, père et fils, maîtres maçons de Prats-de-Molo en conservant les murs gouttereaux de l'église édifiée au XIIIe siècle mais en les surélevant pour recevoir la nouvelle couverture.
