The Gothic cathedral, begun on 27 May 1394 after the Romanesque church collapsed and finished in 1501, received at the end of the 18th century the Neoclassical façade that Ventura Rodríguez designed in 1783 and Santos Ángel de Ochandátegui built, with its two towers and atrium. It is the most complete cathedral complex preserved in Spain, with the cloister, refectory, kitchen and dormitory of the chapter's common life. The former canons' rooms house the Diocesan Museum.
