TheCollegiate Church of St. Felix (Catalan:Col·legiata de Sant Feliu)[1] is abasilica dedicated toSt. Felix[2] in the Catalan city ofGirona, dating to the early days of Christianity. It houses the offices of the Parish of Sant Feliu, theRoman Catholic Diocese of Girona, so called because it was the main church of Girona before the construction of theGirona Cathedral.[3] Its construction, in honor of Felix of Girona (Sant Feliu), occurred from the 12th century until the 17th century. It retains much of the Romanesque construction, completed later with a Gothicnave and a covered baroquefacade. It is notable for its eight Roman and early Christiansarcophagi of the 3rd and 4th centuries, along with the Gothic tomb ofNarcissus of Girona who, according to tradition, was one of the early bishops of the see.[4]
