The basilica is a stunning Gothic-style building constructed in the 14th century using ashlar and masonry. The facade and steps, however, are Baroque. Although it may not be as grand as the Girona Cathedral, it is still definitely worth a visit. Additionally, admission to both of these churches is free on Sundays, just thought it would be good to know!

This medieval basilica is located a few hundred metres from the cathedral and is almost as impressive. It is a must-visit place, with an audio guide included in the admission price of €7.50 per person (€5 for us oldies).

If you purchased the 3 in 1 ticket including the cathedral, this is another site you will visit. It is not as grand as the cathedral, but nonetheless worth visiting. The entrance is a bit tricky to find. If you use Google map to search for this place, it will take you to a good place to take photo of it, but it isn't the entrance. You will need to continue to walk to the right of the building, then you will see a slope up to the building. Make sure you get the audio guide so that you get all the detail information.

This church is just opposite the bridge of Saint Felix, on the eastern bank of the River Onyar. It seemed a little odd that a basilica is smaller than the cathedral until I found out that historically this church housed the Diocese of Girona and therefore the main church in Girona until the construction of the cathedral. Much like the cathedral, it’s a lovely mix of Romanesque, Gothic and with a Baroque facade. Not quite a beautiful as Girona Cathedral, this church does have a few interesting points such as the 4th century sarcophaguses, an interesting alter with a statue of Saint Felix (I think), and the tomb of Narcissus of Girona who was one of the early bishops of Girona. Keep in mind that you can buy a combined ticket for this basilica and Girona Cathedral, also known as the Church of St. Mary. Although the cathedral is more opulent than the basilica, I actually found the narrative of the audio guide for the basilica far superior. Do not miss the Chapel of Saint Narcissus, which I though was far more beautiful than any of the chapels in the church for it's stunning jasper walls.

This imposing basilica church equals the nearby city cathedral in beauty and importance. Located in a picturesque medieval part of the city, this church is Gothic in style with a baroque facade, full of statues in niches. The church is older than the cathedral and has also a slender bell tower and stairs leading up to its main entrance.

Stopped in Girona on the way back from the Dali Museum. Wish we had more time to walk the walls explore the various churches and the narrow. Definitely worth a visit once you find the historic centre. A bit like Florence meets Spain with the bridges and houses along the river

The Basílica de Sant Feliu in Girona is what happens when centuries of devotion meet slightly eccentric medieval architecture. With its soaring spires, weathered stone, and interior that smells faintly of incense and history, it’s the kind of church that feels alive even when empty, as if the saints themselves are judging your choice of footwear. Dating back to the 4th century in origin, though largely rebuilt in Gothic style over the centuries, it houses tombs of notable locals, intricate altarpieces, and the ever, impressive twisted columns that somehow survived every renovation and minor earthquake that came along. Every corner whispers stories of priests, pilgrims, and occasional tourists attempting to look reverent while sneaking a selfie. Not flashy like a cathedral in Milan, not overcrowded like a Barcelona hotspot, and definitely not silent, the occasional footstep echoes, tourists murmur, and bells chime somewhere in the distance. But if you enjoy history, gothic quirks, and the quiet weight of centuries pressing gently on your shoulders, Basílica de Sant Feliu delivers in a quietly imposing way. A place where architecture, faith, and time collide, reminding visitors that medieval Girona still knows how to command attention without demanding it.

Beautiful basilica of Girona! Together with the cathedral, they dominate the skyline of Girona. Walk around the basilica where the Jewish quarter is located or go up to the hill where the old City Hall is and catch a glimpse of the basilica against the city as backdrop. You can also see the top of the basilica along the river.

The Romanesque Gothic Basilica de St. Felix from the 12th-C. has a 16th-C. Baroque facade
