The Holy Church Co-Cathedral of Santa María is the most important Christian temple in Cáceres and, since 1957, it has the rank of Co-Cathedral.
The origin of this church dates back to the 13th century as a Romanesque temple, but its destruction led to the creation of a new late-Gothic church between the 15th and 16th centuries. Late-Romanesque corbels - heads of the beam that protrude outside - remain from this Romanesque period on the western and southern Gothic doors.

The interior has a rectangular plan with three naves, with pointed arches and ribbed vaults. Its altarpiece stands out, from the 16th century, made of cedar and pine without polychrome dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin, made by Roque Balduque and Guillén Ferrant. Also worth highlighting is the Carvajal chapel, with a baroque altarpiece with Saint Michael the Archangel, and the Black Christ chapel, whose image is the protagonist of one of the most important processions of Holy Week in Caceres.
