Cathedral of Jaca

About

The Cathedral of St. Peter the Apostle in Jaca, Aragon, stands as the province's first Romanesque cathedral, dating back to the late first millennium. Built between the 1070s and early 12th century, it is one of the Iberian Peninsula’s oldest church structures. Over centuries, the cathedral has grown through additions and alterations – notably from the late 15th to the 18th century – creating a rich tapestry of architectural styles. As the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Jaca, the cathedral welcomes visitors to explore its historic nave, ornate altarpieces, and the adjacent diocesan museum that showcases regional religious art.
