The New Cathedral is one of the two cathedrals that the city of Salamanca has.

The need to build this building arose when what is now known as the Old Cathedral became small due to the boom of the city, due to the university activity, at the beginning of the 16th century. For its construction, help was requested from the Catholic Monarchs.

The works began in 1512, on a project by Gil de Ontañón, and ended in 1733, so this cathedral is one of the last manifestations of Spanish Gothic.

It was planned that the Old Cathedral would remain standing to allow worship until the construction of the New one was completed and that at that time it would be demolished. When the work was completed, more than two centuries later, the idea was reconsidered and, luckily, both buildings were preserved.
