(Translated by Google) It is located on the outskirts of the town of Sopeira and with the San Cugat cliffs as a backdrop. The monastery is considered a masterpiece of Ribagorzano Romanesque, it is from the 11th century although with Visigothic origins. It was declared a National Monument in 1931. The exterior is decorated with blind arches, lesenas, checkered stripes, and the doorway is decorated with chrismon. It was a Visigoth temple destroyed in the Muslim invasion. The impulse of the counts of Tolosa raised a new monastic building, around 810 under the canons of the prevailing Romanesque. The temple once exerted a great influence on the cultural, political and religious life of Ribagorza. Monastic life continued uninterrupted until the confiscation of Mendizabal in 1836, its temple being relegated to the function of the parish church of the place of Sopeira. Access to the monastery is free. (Original) Se encuentra a las afueras del pueblo de Sopeira y con los farallones de San Cugat como telón de fondo. El monasterio está considerado una obra maestra del románico ribagorzano, es del siglo XI aunque con orígenes visigóticos. Fue declarado Monumento Nacional en el año 1931. El exterior está decorado con arquillos ciegos, lesenas, franjas de ajedrezados, y la portada, con crismón. Fue un templo visigótico destruido en la invasión musulmana. El impulso de los condes de Tolosa elevó una nueva edificación monástica, alrededor del 810 bajo los cánones del románico imperante. El templo, ejerció en tiempos una gran influencia en la vida cultural, política y religiosa de la Ribagorza. La vida monástica continuó de modo ininterrumpido hasta la desamortización de Mendizabal en 1836, quedando relegado su templo a la función iglesia parroquial del lugar de Sopeira. El acceso al monasterio es gratuito.
(Translated by Google) It is the small church of the municipality of Sopeira, which currently has around 45 inhabitants. A lady from the town opens to tourists on Sunday mornings from 11.00 to 13.00 and briefly explains the characteristics of the place. The incorrupt body of an abbot dating back to the year one thousand is preserved in the crypt. (Original) È la piccola chiesa del comune di Sopeira, che conta attualmente circa 45 abitanti. Una signora del paese apre ai turisti la domenica mattina dalle 11.00 alle 13.00 e spiega brevemente le caratteristiche del luogo. Nella cripta si conserva il corpo incorrotto di un abate risalente all'anno mille.
(Translated by Google) Sopeira is home to one of the jewels of the Upper Aragonese Romanesque. The monastery of Santa María de Alaón next to the bank of the Noguera Ribagorzana river is a fundamental part of the history, culture and political structure of the County of La Ribagorza. It was a Visigoth temple destroyed in the Muslim invasion. The impulse of the counts of Tolosa raised a new monastic building, around 810 under the canons of the prevailing Romanesque. Currently the church is the most prominent element. Since 1931 this complex was declared a national monument. It can be visited, individually or with a guide. Alaón during its period of splendor (9th and 10th centuries), which it maintained until the confiscation of Mendizábal in the 19th century, was the driving force of the cultural, social and political life of the County of La Ribagorza and, later, of the Kingdom of Aragon. The proliferation of letters and manuscripts, of which more than 200 documents are preserved, have shaped the historical discourse of this time. The Muslim invasion and the subsequent transfer of power to Roda de Isábena did not reduce the strength of this institution that kept a good part of the temples and religious in Ribagorzan lands under its protection. Artistically, the foundations are maintained in the cloister and the monastery rooms have been lost. Its value lies in the elements kept by the Romanesque church. Its three naves are divided by four pairs of cruciform pilasters and two cylindrical columns and end in a triple semicircular apse decorated with different white, red, gray and yellow marbles. The checkered stripes and the hemicycle, with the allegory of the loaves and the fishes, stand out in this set. The central crypt is simple and maintains an inscription in red on its axis that says "On the 14th of the Kalends of October (September 16), Raymond, bishop of Barbastro, consecrated this altar in honor of Saints Peter and Paul." (Original) Sopeira alberga una de las joyas del románico altoaragonés. El monasterio de Santa María de Alaón junto a la orilla del rio Noguera Ribagorzana, es una parte fundamental de la historia, cultura y estructura política del Condado de La Ribagorza. Fué un templo visigótico destruido en la invasión musulmana. El impulso de los condes de Tolosa elevó una nueva edificación monástica, alrededor del 810 bajo los cánones del románico imperante. En la actualidad la iglesia es el elemento más destacado. Desde 1931 este conjunto fue declarado monumento nacional. Se puede visitar, individual o con guia. Alaón durante su etapa de esplendor (siglo IX y X), que mantuvo hasta la desamortización de Mendizábal en el siglo XIX, fue motor de la vida cultural, social y política del Condado de La Ribagorza y, posteriormente, del Reino de Aragón. La proliferación de cartas y manuscritos, de los que se conservan más de 200 documentos, han confeccionado el discurso histórico de esta época. La invasión musulmana y el posterior traspaso de poder a Roda de Isábena, no redujo la fortaleza de esta institución que mantuvo bajo su protección a buena parte de los templos y religiosos en tierras ribagorzanas. Artísticamente, en el claustro se mantienen los cimientos y se han perdido las dependencias del monasterio. Su valor reside en los elementos que guarda la iglesia románica. Sus tres naves están divididas por cuatro pares de pilastras cruciformes y dos columnas cilíndricas y terminan en un triple ábside semicircular decorado con distintos mármoles de colores blanco, rojo, gris y amarillo. Las franjas de ajedrezados y el hemiciclo, con la alegoría de los panes y los peces, resaltan en este conjunto. La cripta central es sencilla y mantiene en su eje una inscripción en rojo que dice «El XIV de las calendas de octubre (16 de septiembre) Raimundo obispo de Barbastro, consagró este altar en honor de los santos Pedro y Pablo».
