Sant Jaume de Frontanyà

Mountain hamlet

Sant Jaume de Frontanyà is a municipality in the comarca of the Berguedà in Catalonia, Spain. It is situated in the Pyrenees below the peak of Pedró de Tubau (1543 m). The village was the smallest municipality in Catalonia in terms of population but in 2018 lost the title to Gisclareny after the village grew. The monumental Romanesque church of Sant Jaume is a protected historic-artistic monument from the 11th century. The village is served by a local road to Borredà and it is well known for its peace and tranquility.

The local larder

What people eat in Cataluña when they eat well.

Pa amb tomàquet

Bread, ripe tomato, oil and salt: the base of any Catalan table.

Calçots con romesco

Spring onions charred over flames, January to March, bib on.

Butifarra amb mongetes

Fresh sausage grilled with sautéed beans; hearty and honest.

Crema catalana

Egg-yolk custard with a sugar crust caramelised on the spot.

Markets and local produce

Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.

We haven't confirmed Sant Jaume de Frontanyà's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
