 Santa Maria del Mar

Santa Maria del Mar is a Catholic Church built between 1329 and1383 in Catalan Gothic style. It is huge so it looks really magnificent. Its construction started during the reign of King Alfonso IV of Aragon. The architects in charge were Berenguer Montagut and Ramon Despuig.

From the outside, Santa Maria gives an impression of massive severity that belies the interior. In contrast with the exterior, the interior gives an impression of light and spaciousness.

Santa Maria del Mar is the place for Christians to pray and a fabulous place for sightseers to enjoy medieval architecture. 

I was greatly impressed by the magnificence of the church. It is exceptional and attracting.
