The idea that God's temple is open to you for your enjoyment does not apply to Albarracín

Walking tour in the Spanish Central Plateau ~ Teruel (region) Fascinating example of the transition between Late Gothic and Renaissance in Spanish architecture. Although its origins date back to the 12th century, the cathedral as we know it today is the result of extensive reconstruction starting in the 16th century. Its ground plan is Renaissance, with a broad central nave and side chapels, but its vaulting is Gothic, with a star-shaped cross, attributed to the French architect Pierres Vedel. This combination of styles gives it a unique character and beauty. From the outside, the cathedral presents a typically austere and severe appearance of the Renaissance, while inside, the light filtering through the large Gothic windows creates a magical atmosphere full of contrasts. Guided tours and paid visits only. #AprilDestinations2025 #SpainTravel #Aragon
