You won’t see Jaime Lannister storming up the stairs of the Girona cathedral on his white horse, but tourists trudging up the stone steps.

It boasts the world’s widest Gothic nave.

Perched atop Plaça de la Catedral the Romanesque and Gothic style Girona cathedral is, in fact, a real structure and the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Girona. HBO transformed the medieval quarters of this northeastern Catalan city of Girona into Braavos, Oldtown and King’s Landing in the sixth season of the medieval fantasy epic. Girona Cathedral’s stone stairs were depicted in the Game of Thrones as the exterior for the Great Sept of Baelor in King’s Landing. Stand at the hilltop Girona Cathedral’s sharp, ascending stone steps as the bells toll in a hot summer day to imagine yourself on the Great Sept of Baelor in the Game of Thrones.
