Descend into the crypt to see the final resting place of Saint Eulalia. The choir stalls, adorned with the coats-of-arms of the knights of the Order of the Golden Fleece, are also worth a visit. These areas offer a deeper understanding of the cathedral’s religious and historical significance and are included in your ticket!

About Cathedral of Barcelona
History buffs will love Barcelona Cathedral. Originally a Roman temple, the site was later transformed into a cathedral in the Gothic style. Construction spanned over 200 years, it began in 1298 in Catalan Gothic style, but the facade wasn't finished until the late 1800s in the Neo-Gothic style. Look for architectural details reflecting Catalan heritage. Climb the bell tower for panoramic city views
The cloister provides a sanctuary for an unusual group of residents - 13 white geese. This tradition symbolizes Saint Eulalia's young age at martyrdom.
The cathedral's rooftop features a fascinating array of gargoyles, carved figures that serve a practical purpose - channeling rainwater away from the masonry. Look closer and you'll also spot sculptures of saints, biblical figures, and even mythical creatures adorning the roofline.
In Corpus Christi, a unique local tradition unfolds within the cathedral. Eggs placed atop Barcelona's fountains appear to dance due to the water jets, symbolizing the life cycle of Christ. This custom is believed to have originated at Barcelona Cathedral.
While Sagrada Familia may be the more famous landmark, Barcelona Cathedral holds the distinction of being the city's most important church. Consecrated in 1339 and designated as the seat of the Archbishop of Barcelona, it holds historical and religious significance.
The cathedral boasts a collection of 21 bells, some retired due to their age. L'Esquella de Prima, dating back to 1321, holds the distinction of being one of the oldest bells in Catalonia. The largest bell, Eulàlia, weighs an impressive three tons. These bells play a vital role, with dedicated bells marking time and signifying special occasions.
