Granada Cathedral

Granada Cathedral is a Renaissance building, built from 1518, making it the very first church built in the Renaissance style in Spain. After the reconquest of the city in 1492, the Catholic Monarchs planned the construction of a cathedral on the site of the former Great Nasrid Mosque of Granada. In 1505, the construction was planned and its design was entrusted to Juan Gil de Hontañón and Enrique Egas, who were already working on the city's royal chapel, and work began in 1518.
