This magnificent Gothic structure, steeped in history from the 13th and 14th centuries, is a true architectural gem. Inside, the altarpiece stands as a breathtaking testament to Spanish Renaissance art. Crafted in alabaster by the talented Damián Forment between 1520 and 1533, it vividly depicts the Passion of Christ.
The intricate details of the sculpture are captivating, drawing you into the artistry and devotion of the era. As you explore, you can't help but imagine the countless stories and events these ancient walls have witnessed. And don't miss the chance to wander through the nearby winding streets, where charming cafes and local shops offer a delightful glimpse into the vibrant culture of the area. It's like stepping back in time, with every corner revealing a new piece of history waiting to be discovered.
