Catedral de Santa Maria
Murcia's sumptuous cathedral was raised in 1394 on the site of a mosque. Initially Gothic in style, it was dramatically altered in 1748, when the exuberant baroque facade with its tumbling cherubs was added. A highlight of the interior is the 15th-century flamboyant Gothic Capilla de los Vélez, its flutes and curls like piped icing sugar.
