Jaca - Catedral de San Pedro

The Jaca Cathedral is one of the oldest of the Iberian peninsula, dating back to the 1070s. The building, that was altered many times later, was commissioned by King Sancho Ramírez, who established an episcopal seat in Jaca, then the capital of the Kingdom of Aragon.

The Romanesque cathedral was completed around 1130. In 1395 a blaze destroyed large parts of the cathedral. The ceiling had to be reconstructed in the following decades and got renovated in the 16th century, when the aisles were added and the nave got enlarged.

It is pretty dark inside the cathedral, so I could only take a few blurry photos. Here is one of them. Just like outside here are men with "classical hairstyles", clad in togas. They are obviously discussing an interesting subject. This capital may be carved as well by the "Master of Jaca" or his studio.
