According to the legend, XIII century, king James I of Aragon on the way to Mallorca, where he was going to fight with the Arabs, got into a terrible storm. The king vowed to build a magnificent temple to the glory of God, the Lord will leave him alive and well. The Lord accepted his prayer, and the king safely to the shore and liberated the island from serbskogo rule.

In place of the old mosque of Medina, the king commanded to build a temple. The Cathedral was rebuilt several times. Its interiors in the twentieth century have altered Antonio Gaudi. For example, a whimsical canopy over the altar wrought iron – work of this celebrated master.

In the Cathedral you can see the magnificent stained glass Windows of the XIV-XVI centuries. In the tiny chapel of St. Trinity buried the remains of some Catalan and Aragonese kings. The gem of the collection of the Cathedral Museum is the ark of the True cross, inlaid with precious metals and stones Dating from the XV century.
