Santa Eulalia’s Festival, Celebrating the bravery of a unique child The story of #Eulalia dates back to ancient days of #Christian persecution in #Barcelona, during the era of #Roman emperor Diocletian. Eulalia was a young Christian that lived in the countryside of Barcelona which is now called Sarrià. Eulalia was a strong #humanrights activist who refused to recant her faith in Christianity, speaking out against the #dictatorship of emperor Diocletian. For this reason, she was subjected to severe torture by the Roman army.
