CATHEDRAL
A beautiful cathedral, in baroque and neoclassical style, with a remarkable crypt in Cadiz.
In sunny weather, at certain times it will be wise to approach it by borrowing Campo del Sur from Caleta: It is bright and golden in the sun thanks to its dome covered with yellow tiles. In the crypt of this Baroque and neo-classical building, the famous Compositeur Manuel de Falla comes from Cadiz. His treasure, considered to be the third in Spain, contains various pieces of jewellery, including beautiful custodes: the custodía del Corpus, 5 m high and weighs 1 000 kg, and the del del Millon, with more than 250 000 precious stones. If the Torre del Poniente, the highest in Cadiz, cannot be visited as a result of work, we can join the Torre del Levante, Torre del reloj, which also allows a magnificent view of the city, the bay and the wide. Entrance to the cathedral entitles you to visit the Cathedral museum - Plaza Fray Félix, Casa de la Contaduría ✆ +34 956 259 812. Nearby, you will notice the church Santa Cruz, the primitive cathedral.
