From the 9th century. Although it is located in the municipality of Cercs, in 1959 it was ceded, after an agreement, by the bishopric of Solsona to the city council of Berga for its restoration and conservation. Religious worship is only held there on the day of its annual feast and it depends on the parish of Berga.
Sant Quirze de Pedret is a pre-Romanesque church in Cercs, Spain. It is one of the few tenth-century buildings in Catalonia and is known for its 12th-century Romanesque murals by the so-called Master of Pedret. The rich iconographic programme depicts a variety of ecclesiological and eschatological themes that connect with the Late Antique and Byzantine artistic traditions in Italy and with the Gregorian reform movement. The murals' rediscovery and study in the early twentieth century significantly contributed to establishing the importance of Catalan Romanesque mural painting. The original murals were taken to the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya and the diocesan museum of Solsona for protection; copies have been painted in their original settings.
