Huesca - Catedral de Santa Maria

The "Catedral de Santa Maria" in Huesca got erected over 300 years. The building started end of the 13th century in gothic style, replacing a mosque that had served as a church, since Huesca was conquered in 1096 by Christian troops led by Peter I of Aragon.

The diocesan museum, that is hosted inside the cathedral, displays an extraordenary collection of medieval art. Many of the treasures are under this gothic cupola, equipped with a smoke detector.
