The Gothic church was built between the 13th and 15th centuries and is the third church on the same site. Its predecessors were the old Romanesque cathedral and, at its base, an early Christian basilica dating from before the Visigothic rule. The current structure, with its impressive facade and central tower, is much more recent, dating from 1886 to 1913. The building is listed as a Bien de Interés Cultural (Cultural Property) and, since November 2, 1929, as a national monument of artistic and historical importance.
