Tudela - Cathedral
|
|
Tudela's most important building is the Cathedral, built on the site of an earlier mosque in the 12th and 13th centuries, in a style transitional between Romanesque and Gothic. It has an octagonal bell-tower and a smaller tower with a helm roof. Over the west doorway, in its eight archivolts, is a superb Last Judgment, with innumerable figures. The most notable features of the interior are the retablo, painted by Diego Díaz de Oviedo in 1489-94, remains of Romanesque wall paintings, the Romanesque image of Santa María la Blanca, the magnificent choir-stalls and the Capilla de Santa Ana, lavishly decorated in Baroque style.
