The cathedral begun in 1203 and consecrated in 1278, which served as barracks from 1707 until the army handed it over in 1948. From after 1492 date the Plateresque doorways of the canons' quarters beside the north gallery of the cloister: the chapter house door by Lope de Arrue (1549) and the door of the chapel of Santa María la Antigua by Jeroni Xanxo (1559/1562). The rest of the fabric, Romanesque and Gothic, is earlier.
