This striking Gothic cathedral was built in 1298 where a Romanesque temple once sat. Its expansive construction has taken more than 150 years, built in three stages. The main exterior was completed in the later years of the 19th century and the almost 300-foot high cimborrio was finished in 1913. In 1969 the altar was adapted, archives were renovated, and illuminations were installed, while that year also saw the cleaning of the blackened domes. Within this stunning cathedral, visitors will be able to see an array of Gothic art and baroque altarpieces, its choir and baptistery, and the burial place of Saint Eulalia.
