The cathedral is a hall church, vaulted over five aisles, the outer two divided into chapels. 

The high altar is raised, allowing a clear view into the crypt. 

The cathedral is dedicated to Eulalia of Barcelona, co-patron saint of Barcelona, a young virgin who, according to Catholic legends, suffered martyrdom during Roman times in the city. 

One story has it that she was exposed naked in the public square and a miraculous snowfall in mid-spring covered her nudity. The enraged Romans put her into a barrel with knives stuck into it and rolled it down a street.
