About Valencia Cathedral (Holy Grail Chapel)
Valencia Cathedral was built from 1262 on the site of the city's main mosque after the Christian reconquest, combining Romanesque, Gothic, and later Baroque elements. Its side chapel houses an agate cup that tradition, though historically unproven, identifies as the Holy Grail used at the Last Supper. It served for centuries as the seat of Valencia's bishops.
