CATHEDRAL OF SANTA MARÍA DEL PRADO

This impressive 15th century church, with elements from the 13th century, has a magnificent altarpiece and is a symbol of the region's military history.
The Cathedral of Ciudad Real stands out as the Priory Seat of the Military Orders, especially that of Calatrava, which were highly influential in this region. The building dates to the 15th century, although its Puerta del Perdón and rose window are from the 13th century. The large single-nave church is presided over by a magnificent altarpiece featuring the city's patron saint.
