It is located in the southeastern part of the center of the old town of Taüll, halfway between Santa Maria and Sant Climent de Taüll. It may have been the original parish church, before the construction of the other two. This church, or its remains, were partly collapsed by a landslide in the 19th century, and the nave was transformed into a school, so it was completely transformed and disfigured. Around 1970, two of its apses came to light again (the northern one is completely lost).
It is a prime example of Catalan Romanesque architecture, located at the southwest entrance of Taüll village. Consecrated on December 10, 1123, by Bishop Ramon Guillem of Roda. First mentioned in a 1064 sale-exchange by Counts of Pallars Sobirà (Artau I and Llúcia) to Counts of Pallars Jussà (Ramon IV and Valença), alongside Erill Castle. Built over an 11th-century predecessor, retaining some fragments like south wall and lower apse. Shared parish with Santa Maria de Taüll; attempted Erill lords' monastic nucleus. Passed to Urgell Diocese in Late Middle Ages under co-rectors system. Key restorations: 1919-1922 mural extractions to MNAC (Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya in Barcelona), 1970s, 2000-2001 (new murals discovered).
The church of Sant Pere de Boí was a Romanesque chapel in the town of Boí, belonging to the municipal district of Vall de Boí, and within the old district of Barruera. It does not belong to the group of Romanesque churches in Vall de Boí declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO because it is only a few ruins. It is located north of the town of Boí, in the place still called Sant Pere, about 300 meters away. You can get there by a rural road that goes from the northern end of the town towards the north-northeast, and climbs up to the place where there is a modern stone. Only one angle of the construction can be seen, with a few regular rows of small and medium-sized ashlars, well squared. It must have been a church with a single nave, with a semicircular apse to the east, covered with wooden beams. It must have been from the 12th century.
