The CATHEDRAL you are now visiting is situated in the heart of TORTOSA, on the banks of the River Ebro, where, according to some historians, there once stood a Roman temple, later a Visigothic basilica, and during the Muslim expansion, a mosque.
After the Christian conquest, a Romanesque cathedral was built, which would be the most immediate predecessor of the current Gothic cathedral we now behold. This began with the apse in the 14th century and was completed with the Baroque façade in the 18th century.
