This cathedral is amazing. Its nave is the second widest in the world and its paintings and sculptures amongst the most exquisite in Spain. The facade of the cathedral is in the Baroque style but the remainder of the building is Gothic. The chancel was built in the 14th century and Guillem Bofill added the single nave in 1416. At the back of the altar is a marble throne and in the chancel is a fine silver and enamel altarpiece.
