The cathedral was begun by King Ferdinand III of Castile on the site of the former Romanesque cathedral in 1221, beginning at the chevet, which was completed in nine years. First consecrated in 1260, then there was a lengthy hiatus of almost 200 years before the cathedral was completed in 1567, with the completion of the lantern spire over the main crossing.
