The largest Baroque church in Spain, built in the XVII-XIX centuries. The first religious building on the site of the current church appeared in the II century, then it was successively replaced by Romanesque and Gothic temples. The modern building makes a strong impression: there are 4 towers 90 meters high on the edges, 12 domes are covered with Moorish ornaments, the interior painting was done by Francisco Goya himself.

In ancient times, the site of the temple was the forum (the center of the Roman city), during the reign of the Moors – the mosque of Saragusta al Bayda. In the XII century, after the liberation of Zaragoza, a Christian temple began to be erected instead of a Muslim one. Since the beginning of the XIII century, coronations, weddings and burials of Aragonese rulers have been held in La Seo. The cathedral is built in the magnificent Mudekhar style. Craftsmen from Seville took part in its decoration.

Since the XV century, there was a dungeon of the Inquisition, then barracks. After restoration in the XX century, the fortress housed a museum, a court and the legislative assembly of Aragon.
