Explore the Cathedral cloister, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture built between the 14th and 15th centuries by renowned architects like Andrés Escuder and sculptors like Antonio Claperós. Your expedition starts at the exterior doors of Piety and Santa Eulalia. The inner cloister's white marble Romanesque door, connecting the Cathedral and the cloister, features geometric motifs and a Gothic-style pediment. This fascinating piece is rumored to date back to the previous Romanesque cathedral. The cloister has a rectangular layout with four galleries separated by arches resting on pillars. The reliefs on the pillars depict scenes from the Old Testament and a legend about the Holy Cross. Furthermore, look up at the vault keys to discover scenes from the New Testament, etched in stone.
