What Will We See in Cuenca Cathedral?

Cuenca Cathedral is one of the key monuments in La Mancha, featuring significant history and architectural elements.

The imposing façade reflects Gothic style with French influences. La Seo, built over an Arab mosque in the 12th century, is the first Gothic cathedral in Castile.

Inside, the stained-glass windows create a notable light effect. During the visit, you'll discover treasures like the Renaissance cloister, the high altar, and the Sagrario Chapel.
