The primitive Romanesque church was built dedicated to the Savior and Saint Mary. In 1098, King Alfonso VI donated land for its construction. The cathedral was consecrated in 1106 by Bishop Don Pedro Nazar. It later became a collegiate church around 1158 and finally a cathedral after 1232. Since then, it has been the seat of the bishop of Calahorra-La Calzada. Construction of the current church began in 1158, preserving much of the old structure. In the 16th century, the right part of the transept was raised to house the tomb of Saint Dominic.

In addition to the fact that it is the only church-fortress in La Rioja, what is most striking is that inside it houses a henhouse in which a real rooster and hen live, which are also protected as an Asset of Cultural Interest by the Government of La Rioja. The animals are replaced every two weeks and allude to the legend of the hanged man. The myth tells that a pilgrim was hanged after being unjustly accused of theft. When his parents went to see the body they found their son alive and he told them that Santo Domingo de la Calzada had saved his life. The parents proclaimed that their son was alive, but the mayor of the city did not believe them and told them something like: "Your son is as alive as the roasted rooster and hen that I am eating." And suddenly, according to legend, the animals regained their feathers and came back to life.

"In commemoration of this legend one finds in the cathedral a peculiar arrangement which is probably not found in any other place of worship. Two white hens, a rooster and a hen, are kept in a large cage. If the rooster crows while one is in the church, it should be a particularly good sign for the way ahead. (...) I take a good look at the cathedral, which partly has the character of a museum. Pilgrims with a pilgrim's pass get admission at half price and as a bonus the pilgrim's stamp." (Jo Hagen in "Buen Camino. Diary of a bicycle trip on the Way of St. James")
