La Seo, the cathedral of the Saviour, built on the great mosque of Saraqusta, with Romanesque apses of the 12th century and Gothic and Mudéjar naves. From the years after 1492 are the Mudéjar eight-pointed-star cimborrio, built between 1505 and 1520, the two bays added at the west end under Archbishop Hernando de Aragón between 1547 and 1550, and Julián Yarza's Baroque classicist façade, of 1763 to 1767. Visitors enter by the San Bartolomé door, at the hours when no service is held.
