Tips
The mighty building of the Cathedral of Santa Maria dominates the cityscape very predominantly. It is the most important Gothic building on the island and was completed in 1342. Originally a mosque stood in this place. The building material, a light sandstone, comes directly from the quarries of the island. The single-nave church is framed by 12 chapels. Particularly impressive is the interior with the high ribbed vault.
