Església de Sant Pau del Camp

Barcelona's best example of Romanesque architecture is the dainty little cloister of this small 11th- or 12th-century church, which was founded in the 9th or 10th century but later rebuilt. The cloister's 13th-century polylobulated arches are unique in Europe, sitting atop intricately carved capitals that depict scenes such as Adam and Eve with the serpent. The church itself contains the tombstone of Guifré II, son of Guifré el Pelós, a 9th-century count considered the founding father of Catalonia.
