The Eugenie Chapel was built in the Romanesque-Byzantine style and was named after Saint Eugenia, the patron saint of Napoléon III’s wife, Empress Eugénie de Montijo. The Church of Saint Eugénie is a grey stone neo-Gothic church that overlooks Port Vieux (the old port).

The chapel dedicated to Saint Eugenia, the patron saint of the French people’s Empress, was inaugurated in 1856. A bell tower was constructed in the same year financed to the tune of 30,000 Francs by Emperor Napoleon III. The inauguration mass was celebrated in the presence of the imperial family.

Saint Eugénie Chapel was a place of worship for over 30 years. Until the creation of the Imperial Chapel in 1864, the Emperor and his family attended Sunday mass in the Saint Eugénie Chapel. It was in 1884 that Father Gaston Larre decided to construct a new and larger church.

The Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma (Cathedral of St. Mary of Palma), more commonly referred to as La Seu (a title also used by many other churches), is a Gothic Roman Catholic cathedral located in Palma, Mallorca, Spain

Built by the Crown of Aragón on the site of a Moorish-era mosque, the cathedral is 121 metres long, 40 metres wide and its nave is 44 metres tall. By way of comparison, the height of the central nave reaches 33m in Notre Dame de Paris, 38m in Reims, 42m in Notre-Dame d'Amiens and 48m in Saint-Pierre de Beauvais, the highest of all Gothic cathedrals.

Designed in the Catalan Gothic style but with Northern European influences, it was begun by King James I of Aragon in 1229 but only finished in 1601. It sits within the old city of Palma atop the former citadel of the Roman city, between the Royal Palace of La Almudaina and the episcopal palace. It also overlooks the Parc de la Mar and the Mediterranean Sea.

Basilica of Santa Maria

It is an impressive baroque work from the 18th century that presides over Calle Mayor in the Old Part of San Sebastian. Of this work of art, the Baroque façade with a Churrigueresque hue stands out, presided over by a sculpture of San Sebastián Mártir and the main altarpiece dedicated to the Virgen del Coro, patron saint of the city. Next to the baptismal font, you can see a cross-shaped sculpture by Eduardo Chillida. The Basilica was built between 1743 and 1774, on the floor of a previous temple that occupied the same space. The main door coincides in a straight line with the entrance to the Cathedral of El Buen Pastor. Those baptized in Santa María are known as “josemaritarras” (literally, “those of Jose Mari”), and are mentioned in the hymn to San Sebastián.

The perfect white-sand beach of the Bahía de la Co**ha (Bay of Co**ha) is the most iconic sight in San Sebastián. With a wide shoreline and mesmerizing turquoise waves, this expansive beach extends for more than a kilometer.

This building overlooking the beach is the institution that governs the municipality of San Sebastián (Spain). Its facilities are located in the old Casino of the city, next to the bay of La Co**ha.
