Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: Two completely different architectural styles meet under one roof. The Gothic nave rises above a 12th-century Romanesque cloister where cats have been living for centuries.
Punti salienti: One stone inside the cloister wall shows a cat's paw print pressed into the mortar from over 800 years ago. Locals say the cathedral's resident cats are direct descendants of the mousers that kept the medieval monastery rodent-free.
Consigli da insider
- Head straight to the cloister first thing, before the guided tours fill the space with chatter.
- Look for the cat paw print embedded in the mortar of the cloister's northeast wall, near the chapter house entrance.
- The museum inside holds a stunning 15th-century altarpiece, but skip the audioguide and just read the wall panels instead.
- Wear comfortable shoes; the climb to the upper terraces rewards you with rooftop views over Tarragona's old town.
