12th-century Romanesque church, now isolated from the old village of Sallent. It is a single-nave building with converging walls and a trilobed apse made up of a central apse and two apsidioles. The nave is barrel vaulted and reinforced by transverse arches; the apse and apsidioles are covered with quarter-sphere vaults. The doorway, with recessed arches, opens on the south wall at the foot of the church. The gabled roof is covered with stone slabs. The masonry is of small ashlars, better worked on the apse. The church stands out for its simplicity and lack of ornament. The nave is unusually short relative to the building’s proportions, suggesting later modifications. The truncated tower bell is accessed through a round-arched door in the north wall. Two stone fonts with notable shapes and decoration are preserved inside.
