Tips
The Church of Santiago de Cádiz, located in the Plaza de la Catedral, was the headquarters of the Colegio de la Compañía de Jesús in this city, of which now only the church remains. After the assault and looting of the city of Cádiz, which took place in 1596 by Anglo-Dutch troops commanded by the Earl of Essex, the College was left in such poor condition that the original temple was rebuilt. Now, it is Mannerist in style, begun by Vignola for the Jesus of Rome and reproduced for most Jesuit churches.
