Located in the forest of La Rabassa, is the lookout of Riu Runer. To access the lookout leave from the Rabassa road, a few meters from the entrance to the Cota 1600 Naturlandia and begin to walk through the beautiful woods of La Rabassa to reach it. You can delight with magnificent views of the valley and the Catalan towns around the country, as the people of Bescaran.

The building dates from the 11th-12th century and follows the architectural style of other Andorran Romanesque churches: it has a rectangular single nave with wooden ceiling, a semi-circular apse andLombard-style belfry. It conserves two archways probably built in the16th and 17th centuries.The interior has remains of a 12th century Romanesque stucco crucifix surrounded by a mural showing the crucifixion with Longinus andStephanon accompanied by the Sun and Moon. Behind the altar grillis a highly artistic 16th century altarpiece showing Italian and German Renaissance influence with scenes from the life and martyrdomof Saint John, author of the book of Revelations and patron saint ofthe church.
A well-preserved small church, wonderful example of Romaesque architecture, with an unusual crucifix.
