Barcelona‘s Ribera district is dominated by Santa María del Mar, an
imposing church built between 1329 and 1383, at the height of
Catalonia's maritime and mercantile preeminence. It is an outstanding
example of Catalan Gothic, with a purity and unity of style that are
very unusual in large mediaeval buildings.
The construction of Santa Maria del Mar is the background for the
best-selling novel La catedral del mar, by Ildefonso Falcones
(Wikipedia).
-----------------------
Santa María del Mar es una iglesia gótica de Barcelona, situada en el
barrio de la Ribera y construida entre 1329 y 1383. Los maestros de
obra fueron Berenguer de Montagut (el diseñador principal del
edificio) y Ramón Despuig.
A día de hoy, esta iglesia es uno de los destinos más visitados de la
ciudad. Este hecho se debe, en parte, a la novela de Ildefonso
Falcones, La catedral del mar, que ha vendido más de un millón de
ejemplares, y ha sido traducido a numerosas lenguas. También se hace
referencia de ella, en la obra de Carlos Ruiz Zafón, en la novela El
juego del ángel (Wikipedia).
