Cathedral of Barcelona

This guide to the Cathedral of Barcelona traces the story of Eulalia, a thirteen-year-old who confronted the Roman prefect Dacian in the winter of 303 and paid for it with her life. It follows what became of her remains afterward, hidden during the Moorish conquest, lost for over a century, then rediscovered, and how the Gothic cathedral grew up around her tomb starting in 1298. Best heard on your way from the crypt toward the cloister garden.
