Top 12 Most Enchanting Cathedrals In Spain | sunnyspainholidays.com
Cathedrals in Spain are magnificent! It is not easy to decide what to include in the list of the most beautiful cathedrals in Spain.
Some can decide easily by stating that the great Spanish cathedrals classified as World Heritage by UNESCO, such as cathedrals of Burgo, Santiago de Compostela, or Córdoba, are the most beautiful. But for others, deciding is more difficult.
Churches and cathedrals are important part the country’s history and architectural heritage. They attract many tourists into the country on yearly basis.
There is even no consensus on how to determine what is the oldest cathedral in Spain? The one in Jaca in the Pyrenees, with its Romanesque parts of the twelfth century? Or would it be the Basilica of Foz in Galicia, which is not really a cathedral? Or is it the Córdoba Cathedral, which is probably the oldest, but not really a church, as it was a mosque up to the 13th century?
There are altogether more than 90 cathedrals and religious buildings in Spain. Each of them is an impressive building in its own way.

Highlights of Castile: Toledo and Salamanca
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | We roam the region of Castile, starting in Toledo — so well-preserved and packed with cultural wonder that the entire city has been declared a national monument, on to Segovia for a festive day out with the locals, then to Ávila for a dose of medieval architecture, finishing with a traditional stroll in Salamanca's Plaza Mayor.

Sevilla
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | Sevilla is the flamboyant city of Carmen and Don Juan, where bullfighting is still politically correct and little girls dream of growing up to become flamenco dancers. Sevilla has soul — and we feel it in its lacy Moorish palace, massive cathedral, lavish royal tombs, labyrinthine Jewish quarter, and its people-filled streets.

Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, Galicia, Spain, Europe
The Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Santiago de Compostela, and is an integral component of the Santiago de Compostela World Heritage Site in Galicia, Spain. The cathedral is the reputed burial place of Saint James the Great, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ. The cathedral has historically been a place of pilgrimage on the Way of St. James since the Early Middle Ages, and marks the traditional end of the pilgrimage route. The building is a Romanesque structure, with later Gothic and Baroque additions. Each of the façades along with their adjoining squares constitute a magnificent urban square. The Baroque façade of the Praza do Obradoiro square was completed by Fernando de Casas Novoa in 1740. Also in baroque style is the Acibecharía façade by Ferro Caaveiro and Fernández Sarela, later modified by Ventura Rodríguez. The Pratarías façade, built by the Master Esteban in 1103, and most importantly the Pórtico da Gloria, an early work of Romanesque sculpture, were completed by Master Mateo in 1188. According to legend, the apostle Saint James the Great brought Christianity to the Iberian Peninsula. In 44 AD, he was beheaded in Jerusalem. His remains were later brought back to Galicia, Spain. Following Roman persecutions of Spanish Christians, his tomb was abandoned in the 3rd century. According to legend, this tomb was rediscovered in 814 AD by the hermit Pelagius, after he witnessed strange lights in the night sky. Bishop Theodomirus of Iria recognized this as a miracle and informed king Alfonso II of Asturias and Galicia (791–842). The king ordered the construction of a chapel on the site. Legend has it that the king was the first pilgrim to this shrine. This was followed by the first church in 829 AD and then in 899 AD by a pre-Romanesque church, ordered by king Alfonso III of León, which caused the gradual development of the major place of pilgrimage. In 997 the early church was reduced to ashes by Al-Mansur Ibn Abi Aamir (938–1002), army commander of the caliph of Córdoba. The Al-Andalus commander was accompanied on his raid by his vassal Christian lords, who received a share of the loot, while St James' tomb and relics were left undisturbed. The gates and the bells, carried by local Christian captives to Córdoba, were added to the Aljama Mosque.[8] When Córdoba was taken by king Ferdinand III of Castile in 1236, these same gates and bells were then transported by Muslim captives to Toledo, to be inserted in the Cathedral of Saint Mary of Toledo. Construction of the present cathedral began in 1075 under the reign of Alfonso VI of Castile (1040–1109) and the patronage of bishop Diego Peláez. It was built according to the same plan as the monastic brick church of Saint Sernin in Toulouse, probably the greatest Romanesque edifice in France. It was built mostly in granite. Construction was halted several times and, according to the Liber Sancti Iacobi, the last stone was laid in 1122. But by then, the construction of the cathedral was certainly not finished. The cathedral was consecrated in 1211 in the presence of king Alfonso IX of Leon. According to the Codex Calixtinus the architects were Bernard the elder, a wonderful master, his assistant Robertus Galperinus and, later possibly, Esteban, master of the cathedral works. In the last stage Bernard, the younger was finishing the building, while Galperinus was in charge of the coordination. He also constructed a monumental fountain in front of the north portal in 1122. The church became an episcopal see in 1075 and, due to its growing importance as a place of pilgrimage, it was soon raised to an archiepiscopal see by pope Urban II in 1100. A university was added in 1495. The cathedral was expanded and embellished with additions in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries.
Spanish foreign minister joins Syrian opposition groups for mosque visit
Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Garcia-Margallo met with representatives of several Syrian opposition groups in the Spanish city of Cordoba on Thursday.
The opposition members held talks earlier in the day to try to reach a consensus ahead of talks on Syria taking place in Geneva this month.
Those talks, known as Geneva II, will be the first time representatives from the Syrian regime and opposition forces sit down together since the start of the conflict nearly three years ago.
Garcia-Margallo joined the opposition representatives on a visit to Cordoba Mosque on Thursday evening.
At a reception given at the nearby Casa Arabe, he said it's possible that Geneva will not end the conflict but it might be the beginning of a process that could finish the conflict.
Yahya al-Aridi, a professor at Damascus University and spokesman for the Syrian opposition, said the Syrian people had been misrepresented.
Those people do not want war, do not want to fight, and they want peace and want to live in peace, he explained. They are being portrayed to the whole world as people who are fighting a civil war or something like that. But they just want to live in peace, and that's the main goal.
Issam Khadra, another member of the Syrian opposition, claimed that the Syrian National Coalition would soon break up.
The coalition is the main Western-backed Syrian opposition group.
It had been expected to decide on Tuesday whether or not to attend the Geneva talks, which is to open on January 22 in Montreux, Switzerland.
But coalition officials say that amid sharp disagreement over the issue, the vote was postponed until at least the middle of next week.
That would be less than a week before the conference.
The Cordoba meeting is set to continue until Friday evening.
