A baroque gem just waiting to be discovered
Although records of the church date back to the year 977, the present building is dated 1763 and was designed by Blai de Trincheria. Inside the church is the Parochial Treasury Museum, whose wonders include an original El Greco painting - Christ Embracing the Cross, precious goldwork and silverwork, gothic and baroque altarpieces and a headstone featuring inscriptions from a Jewish community that had fled from Béziers. Key features of the church itself include two baroque altarpieces created by Pau Costa, the paintings and baldachin by the artist Joan Carles Panyó, a sculpture of Our Lady of Sorrows by Ramon Amadeu, and another sculpture of Saint Stephen by Josep Clarà.
Proposed route
A walk through the old town of Olot to discover its history.

Suggested activity
Find out the names of the three saints who once occupied the now-empty niches of Sant Esteve Church’s façade (the stone sculptures were destroyed in the Civil War). There is also a balcony at the top of the church with a very unique name…
