Description:
An impressive example of Gothic and Catalan architecture, the Duomo took a long time to complete, from 1552 to 1730. It ended up a mixture of styles, with the nave and two aisles in the late Renaissance style and even a 20th-century narthex added to the bastardized facade. The bell tower and apse are in the original 16th-century style. There are also fine examples of marble furnishings dating from the 1700s.
