Nestled in the heart of Pas de la Casa, the Esglesia de Sant Pere stands as a modern spiritual center amidst the vibrant energy of this Andorran town. Consecrated on July 30, 1985, this church distinguishes itself with a contemporary design that reflects the town's more recent growth as a ski destination.
