The Gothic cathedral begun in May 1298, with almost all of its structure in place by about 1463; the Neo-Gothic façade and the crossing tower date from 1882 onwards. From the centuries of these years the interior keeps Bartolomé Ordóñez's choir screens (1517), the Renaissance trascoro that Pedro Villar finished in 1564, the organ case of 1538 and the Baroque altarpieces of the chapels, from Agustí Pujol's Rosary altarpiece (1617 to 1620) to that of Saint Anthony Abbot (1690 to 1712). The cloister and a cathedral museum survive.
