Santa María de la Redonda Cathedral

It was built over a Romanesque primitive temple from the XII Century. Its name comes from its circular floor. In 1453, it became a collegiate church when it was joined to the San Martín de Albelda Church.

 

It has three naves and three polygonal apses. In its main façade, there is a great stone altarpiece that is closed by railings that come from the Santo Cristo chapel. This facade appeared framed by slender Corinthian columns. The temple is divided into three naves and seven bays, and it is covered by a semi- dome in which you can see relieves of the four evangelists, four angels and the Everlasting Father. It suffered several reforms during the first third of the XVI Century and the XVIII Century.

 

Inside, several elements are highlighted. The set of chairs of the choir has been carved by Arnao de Bruselas. The main altarpiece, from the XVII Century, represents the image of the Tree of Jesse where the Virgin appears. The sculpture and painting collection is brilliant, with Gaspar Becerra, Juan de Bazcardo, Navarrete el Mudo and Gil de Siloé´ s works. The Baroque towers of this monument, the “Twins”, were built in the XVIII Century by Martín Berritúa. Moreover, we should not forget the “Calvario” (the Calvary) by Miguel Ángel, the master of the Sistine Chapel painted this board for his friend, Vitoria Colonna.
