The Cathedral of Saint Mary is an imposing testament to faith and art. Construction began in the 12th century and rose as a grandiose temple in the heart of the city. Its history is intertwined with the presence and return of Christianity after Muslim domination. A visit to the cathedral includes exploring its museum and cloister, allowing you to immerse yourself in its rich history and architectural beauty.
