Short description

Long description

    Built on an old mosque, it is located in the historic center of the city. The works began in the first half of the 16th century, in the Gothic style, commissioned by the Catholic Monarchs and continued until the 18th century. It is an unfinished work because it is missing the finishing of the main façade and the south tower. Legend has it that the money intended for the completion of this tower was spent in financing the wars in America at the beginning of the 19th century.
