Its construction began on July 20, 1221, at the initiative of King Ferdinand III the Saint and Bishop Maurice.
It replaced an old 11th-century Romanesque cathedral, promoted by Alfonso VI.
It was consecrated in 1260, although services had already been held there since 1230.
Throughout the 15th to 18th centuries, extensions and renovations were carried out in Flamboyant Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles.
