It was built between 1510 and 1514 on the site of the old Alixara mosque, in an area further north than what had been the center of the Nasrid town. Its construction was the work of the master builder from Granada, Alonso Márquez, who built a sober Gothic-Mudejar temple with a rectangular nave fitted with large arches, with four pairs of side chapels between buttresses, and a slightly wider main chapel. The latter would disappear at the beginning of the 17th century when the extension of the temple was projected in 1603 by adding a transept of a markedly classicist nature.
