The Canònica de Santa Maria de Vilabertran is a significant architectural complex located in the municipality of Vilabertran, Girona province, Spain. Originally part of the Benedictine monastery of Santa Maria, it dates primarily from the 12th to 15th centuries. The building showcases Romanesque and Gothic architectural styles, with notable features including its cloister – considered one of the most important examples of Catalan Romanesque art – and its church. Following the dissolution of the monastery in the 19th century, the Canònica underwent periods of varied use before undergoing restoration efforts to preserve its historical and artistic value.
