The Cathedral of the Incarnation was begun in 1528 on the site of the old main mosque, with Gothic plans that became a Renaissance design in which Diego de Siloé took part. It was consecrated in 1588; work resumed in the 18th century and ended in 1782 with the church unfinished: one tower (hence the nickname La Manquita) and the roof were never built. Since 2015 its roofs can be visited on a guided tour.
