- Brief description: The original cathedral of Salamanca. Romanesque in style, the new cathedral was annexed to it at the end of the 15th century due to the demographic increase of the city and the belief, at the time, that it was "small, dark and low". The interior features the altarpiece of the main altar, the Patio Chico (small yard) and the cloister, though, to be honest, we don't think it's worth going inside (it's too expensive). More interesting are the Cathedral's medieval towers, with spectacular views of the church and the city.
