• Brief description: Gothic cathedral built between the 13th and 15th centuries over the old Romanesque cathedral. It pays homage to Saint Eulalia, also known as the Mercè, patron saint of Barcelona. Inside, the central choir, the crypt of Saint Eulalia (before the main altar) and the tombs of Ramón Berenguer I and his wife, count and countess of Barcelona and authentic royal couple of Catalonia, are of especial interest. Access to the cloister, where you will discover a beautiful garden, can be gained from the aisle on the right-hand side.
