Girona is located in the northeast of Spain, at the foot of the Catalan Mountains, about 33 kilometers west of the Mediterranean coast. It is located in Catalonia, 80 kilometers from its capital, Barcelona, and is a small, atmospheric city full of historic architecture.
What interesting things does Girona offer for visitors? It is best to start your sightseeing from the old town, surrounded by walls that still remember Roman times. The focal point there is the Cathedral of the Blessed Virgin Mary, distinguished by its monumental staircase and Baroque façade, whose interiors represent the Gothic-Romanesque style. The temple boasts the widest nave in the world in terms of Gothic architecture. In addition, the Jewish quarter, El Call, the Arab baths or the Basilica of Sant Feliu, with its historically valuable tombstones and distinctive truncated tower, are also noteworthy.
There are seven museums in Gron. Especially worth a visit is the Archaeological Museum, founded in 1846, with exhibits dating back to the Paleolithic period and later objects excavated in various locations throughout the province. Also noteworthy is the Cathedral's Museum-Temple with an exhibition of sacred art, where the most valuable object is the Tapestry of Creation from 1100.

Undoubtedly the city's crown monument is the Minor Basilica of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Its Gothic architecture, given a Baroque facelift over time, hides real treasures: the main altar from 1710, the baptismal font from three centuries ago, and the organ made thirty years after the altarpiece.

Mentioning monuments, it is impossible to omit St. Nicholas Church. It's like reading ancient chronicles, where the 13th-century roots of this temple lead through the eras, from its Romanesque beginning to its Gothic transformations. A Romanesque portal from the 13th century, a Gothic altarpiece from the 1500s and a Baroque font from the 1700s are like pages of a magic book.
