Explore the grand Barcelona Cathedral, a monument that seamlessly blends spirituality with Gothic architecture in the heart of the city. Built on the remains of an ancient Roman basilica, its construction began in the 13th century and spanned several centuries, culminating in the 20th century with the completion of the main facade. The mix of architectural styles, from Gothic to Neo-Gothic, highlights the cathedral's long and complex history.

For those looking for an exclusive, crowd-free experience, choose the "Sunrise Tour", available in English only, and be among the first to enter the cathedral in the morning.

Delve into the most intriguing corners of the cathedral, such as the Cloister, an oasis of tranquility surrounded by columns adorned with sculptures. Discover the chapel dedicated to Saint Lucia, where it is believed that light enters miraculously. The presence of 13 geese in the courtyard symbolizes the 13 years of Saint Eulalia's life, who was martyred at an early age.

In addition to exploring the interior with included tickets, enjoy a guided tour in your language of choice that will immerse you in the mysteries and historical richness of the cathedral.
