What you'll see
A cathedral with three doors in three styles, Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque, Renaissance angels painted above the altar, and a side chapel holding an agate cup venerated as the Holy Grail.
A brief history
It stands where a Roman temple and then a mosque stood. The cup is a Roman-era stone vessel that tradition says Jesus used at the Last Supper; it has been in Valencia since the 1400s.
