Consecrated on the 10th of December 1123 by Ramon Guillem, bishop of Roda-Barbastro, the church of Sant Climent was built on an earlier church dating from the 11th century.It is a prototype for basilical plan,with three naves separated by columns and covered with a wooden gable roof, the chevet cabecera of the church with three apses and a bell-tower.The Pantocrator of Sant Climent has been the most frequently used emblematic image to represent Catalan Romanesque art. The original is kept in the National Museum of Catalan Art. At the church there has been realized a new integral update of his interior centred on two principal points: the recovery of original Romanesque painting and a new project of musealization that includes the projection by video mapping of the paintings of the major apse. This one is a completely innovative way of pictorical restitution that takes advantage of the technical possibilities of virtual reproduction of the video mapping that shows how would be the church of Sant Climent of Taüll in s. The XIIth, presenting the paintings integrated to the own architecture of the building
