Began in the first century as a chapel, the construction of the present Gothic temple was initiated in 1928. The 16th-century crucifix of the Christ of Lepanto, the crypt of Santa Eulàlia - the patron saint of Barcelona, and the neighborhood Claustro (cloister) are all appreciated by art historians.

Festa de Santa EulàliaFeb 1st, 2010 to Feb 28th, 2010
February commemorates the patron saint of the Old Town, Santa Eulàlia, a Barcelonan martyr. During this festival, there are processions of gegants (giants — costumed people on stilts with huge heads) who dance, as well as the traditional dance of the canes (a traditional Catalan dance), and the correfoc (a person covered in fire-crackers who runs through the streets chasing people; not for the faint-hearted). The same night the City of Barcelona prizes are awarded for literature, arts, music and research. Also called the Laia, the festival is widely popular among adults and children alike. Check website for more details.
