Cathedral de la Santa Creu i Santa Eulalia/La Seu/The cathedral of Barcelona and archbishop's seat (built between 1298-1460) situated in Barri Gòtic. The cathedral is dedicated to Santa Eulalia, who suffered the tenth Christian persecution which took place under Diocletian 303 AD. This was commonly called the Era of the Martyr's. The manner of persecutions was carried out with racks, scourges, swords, daggers, crosses, poisons, and famine (Foxe's Book of Martyrs). According to one legend Eulalia, because of her Catholic belief, was exposed naked in a public square during the 4th century AD. A miraculous snowfall covered her nudity. Enraged by the miracle the Roman tortures placed Eulalia in a barrel studded inside with blades and rolled it down a street (Baixada de Santa Eulalia). Next to the cathedral is a monastery from 14th century. In the cloister garth is always 13 geese in memory of St Eulalia, who was 13 years when martyred by the Romans. She is buried in the cathedral’s crypt. In 343 AD during the Roman Empire was built a basilica at the site of the present. The basilica was destroyed by the Moors in 985 and replaced by a Roman cathedral built between 1046-1058. The chapel Santa Llucia was added from 1257-1268 and later incorporated into the monastery. In 1298 the Gothic cathedral was begun during King Jaume/James II (called "The Just"). During the construction of the cathedral the Roman building was demolished apart from the chapel of Santa Llucia. The work on the cathedral was interrupted because of civil wars and the Black Death. In 1460 the central part of the cathedral was completed. The Gothic facade and the spire were completed respectively in 1889 and 1913 based on the original drawings from 1408 by the French architect Charles Galters. The monastery contains a small museum full of liturgical cultural artefacts.
