Cuenca Cathedral was built between 1182 and 1270. It was the first gothic style Cathedral in Spain, and has Anglo-Norman influences. The façade was rebuilt after it crumbled down in 1902, but remains uncompleted. Like all cathedrals of this age it has seen many changes over the centuries. The façade was rebuilt early last century and in the early 1990s modern coloured windows were installed.
The cathedral adjoins the colourful Plaza Mayor.
