Barcelona Cathedral has two octagonal bell towers in the back of the structure finished in 1393. This one seen from Baixada de Santa Clara stands over the Saint Ivo doorway. The gargoyles on the right are protruding from Palau del Lioctinent, part of the Royal Palace of Barcelona. This building housed Arxiu General de la Corona d’Aragó starting in 1318. In 1994, the General Archive of the Crown of Aragon moved to the Eixample District (see photo of new headquarters in this gallery).
