noteworthy.
A jewel of Baroque art. Built between the 17th and 18th centuries.
Inside there is the Santa Capilla, work of Ventura Rodríguez where
an image of the Virgen del Pilar can be found. Also of interest
is the high altarpiece made out of alabaster, and the Renaissance
choir-stall. The basilica was declared a National Monument. Along
with the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, the Basílica del
Pilar is one of the most important spiritual destinations in Spain.
