Located in the city's Plaza Mayor, declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1985, the Holy Cathedral Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and San Frutos de Segovia, also known as the Lady of the Cathedrals, is a late Gothic temple built between 1525 and 1768. Segovia had three cathedrals: a primitive one on the banks of the Eresma River until the year 516; the old cathedral, located in front of the Alcázar until 1525; and the current one. After the end of the War of the Communities, the secretary of King Carlos I informed the bishop of Segovia of the transfer of the cathedral from in front of the Alcázar to the then Plaza Grande, now Plaza Mayor, above the convent of Santa Clara. The cloister, the choir, the Los Cabrera chapel, the entrance door to the cloister and various sculptures, paintings and grilles were moved from the old cathedral to the new one. Consecrated in 1685, the current chapel of the Santísimo began to be built that year, currently being the baroque exponent of the temple. The 157 Flemish stained glass windows show in detail the mysteries of the life of Christ and the Virgin.
