Barcelona churches and
      cathedrals


   The Tyler Group Barcelona
Although there are numerous historical
churches throughout the city of Barcelona, ​it is
without doubt the basilica I Expiatori Temple
de la Sagrada Familia, who steals the show.
This sizeable Roman Catholic church was designed
by the Catalan architect and accomplished hands of
modernism figurehead Antoni Gaudi and now ranks
as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, although the
structure is actually incomplete and never fully
finished. Serving as the seat of the Archbishop of
Barcelona, ​the Cathedral of the Holy Cross and
Saint Eulalia another striking building. This cathedral
was built between the years of 1298 and 1460 on
the site of an historic Visigoth chapel.
The neo-Gothic facade was added a few
years later in 1870, is based on an original
design in 1408 and has many complex
functions. In particular, it is known for its
numerous roof gargoyles, which consist of
a series of mythical creatures and
animals.
CATEDRAL DE LA SANTA SANTA EULALIA CREU I
(CATHEDRAL OF THE HOLY CROSS AND ST. EULALIA)
Address: Pla Seu, 3, 08002, Barcelona, ​Spain Spain
Tel: + 34 (0) 93 315 1554
Dedicated to Eulali, a patron saint of the city, the
cathedral of Barcelona is richly decorated and a
truly unique sight. The interior is large and full of
original features. This is actually one of the few
churches in the city not to be damaged in civil
wars.
With chapels, magnificent Gothic architecture and
many interesting tombs you are also able to visit the
roof via steps or a lift. Interestingly, the monastery
was called home by some 13 white geese, within
the 'font class Oques' (also the geese live). Major
renovation began in 1968 and lasted for just over
four years.
CATEDRAL        DE    GIRONA       (GIRONA
CATHEDRAL)
Address: Plaça de la Catedral, Girona, Spain
Girona Cathedral is just over an hour north-
east of Barcelona, ​a beautiful church with
many interesting features, including a
beautiful baroque façade. Much of the
building has changed over the centuries and
there is also a museum with many historical
exhibits.
