What travelers are saying

Nice claustrum And have a Walk to the old town, and the Olympic parc (1992)

Interesting Cathedral, worth a visit.

If you prefer a more spectacular views visit the "claustre" and take your time to review all chapitels figures and motives and look at the Cadi over the roofs.

Lovely Cathedral, museum is skippable

The only way to access the Cathedral is to purchase a €4 ticket which provides access to the building plus the adjoining cloister and the adjacent museum. The Cathedral itself is simple and elegant. It is stripped back to reflect its original Romanesque origins which...More

12th century Romanesque Cathedral.

As a wheel chair user I don’t expect easy access to really old places. The ramps into the cloister, through which you enter the cathedral on non mass days, are vertiginous. The capitols of the columns have interesting carvings. You also enter the Diocesan Museum...More

Very interesting cathedral

seu d’urgell has an interesting history as despite being in Spain the Bishop is the Co - Prince of Andorra so it’s intrinsically linked with Andorra up the road . The cathedral is beautiful and for a Catholic Church is quite plain which I prefer...More

Small Romanesque cathedral

This cathedral keeps its Romanesque style as there was no money to update it to Gothic or Baroque. Most of the frescos are now in Barcelona or NY or Boston or LA so not much left to see.
