Place: Barcelona
Kind: Cathedral
Built: 1574 to 1616

Visiting: Not checked

A church in the Gothic tradition rather than the Baroque, built between 1574 and 1616; the parish of San Pedro moved into it, and it has been a cathedral since 2004, when the diocese of Terrassa was created. It burned in the Civil War and was restored in 1958; the bell tower and the top of the facade, which had been left unfinished, were completed in 1999. The neo-Gothic porch of 1918 was rebuilt after the war and inaugurated in 1994.
