The Gothic cathedral of Murcia, which replaced the old mosque: the first stone was laid in 1388, the bulk of the work began in 1394 and it was consecrated in 1467. The Vélez chapel was added from 1490, the bell tower between 1521 and 1793, and the Baroque main front was built between 1737 and 1754. The cathedral museum gives access to the tower.
