Concatedral of Cáceres

We are keen to visit the Concatedral de Santa María de Cáceres is so named because there is another cathedral in the same province at Coria. (hence the con)  It is the oldest church in the city completed between the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries on the site of a thirteenth century place of worship.  It is in a mudejar style with a wooden roof. There are two gothic entrances and just one renaissance style tower crowned by four flameros now housing storks' nests.
 
Inside, there is a fine sixteenth-century carved wooden retablo with figures of the disciples , while in the surrounding gloom are the tombs of many of the town’s great families.



 



Again these seems a beautiful and understated (by Spanish terms) space.
