Description

The construction of the Cathedral of Segovia began in 1525 after the destruction of the old cathedral during the War of the Communities. Juan Gil de Hontañón was chosen as the architect of the building in 1524. Subsequently, construction was continued by his son Rodrigo and by García de Cubillas. As time went by, more architects were added, prolonging the construction of the cathedral for more than two centuries. Finally, Bishop José Martínez Escalzo consecrated the building in 1789.
