This is a must see on any trip to Valencia . We came off a Celebrity Cruise and found the chapel in the Cathedral of Valencia . It wasn't highlighted in any tour information we saw. . We found it to be very inspirational [as we are Christians ].The vocal guide provided when we entered [Cathedral has an entrance fee] gave a brief history as to how it came to be here. A religious experience I will treasure forever.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 175 reviews
Conjunto fundado el 1238 por la orden de San Juan de Jerusalén. Iglesia más antigua de la ciudad de València donde aúnan el románico, el gótico y el barroco, creando en su interior una atmósfera única. Además conserva el único cementerio medieval urbano de València y uno de los pocos de Europa, donde destaca la capilla de Arnau de Romaní y restos de la espina del circo romano de València. De lunes a viernes por las mañanas se ofrecen visitas guiadas por todo el conjunto histórico. Recinto repleto de patios, con bancos, plantas y sombras donde poder descansar durante la visita a la ciudad. Un oasis de paz en el centro de la ciudad.

This was a beautiful church - we were lucky enough to witness a bride arriving in her car with her father - it was wonderful to watch all the wedding guests arrive - the inner courtyard is so quiet and peaceful - worth a visit

Santa Caterina is a wonderful building. Sparesely decorated it demonstrates the classical gothic style without lots of paintings or colourful decoration such as many of the other churches here. The large hall shows a special air of belief which is really special.
