The Cathedral
It dates from 14th to 18th centuries. A brilliant summing- up of the styles of more than five centuries, this wonderful architectural gem boats four outstanding elements: the altarpiece- like Baroque façade of the "Puerta del Perdón", the Gothic chapel of the Velez family, the Renaissance "Junterones" chapel and the symbol of our city: the ninety- six metre tower with is twenty- five bells, an unusual piling- up of styles whose majestic beauty can be seen high above the city from miles around.
