Salamanca Cathedral

Not content with a perfectly good 12th century Romanesque cathedral, the citizenry of Salamanca decided they really could do with another one, so added a Gothic version between the 16th and 18th Centuries. To add to the locational confusion of two cathedrals crashing into one another, in typical European style (primarily to upset our American friends) the 16th century one is referred to as the New Cathedral. If you notice an uncanny resemblance of the New Cathedral to the one in Segovia, that is no surprise; Juan Gil de Hontañón was the master mason for both, as well as having a hand in Zamora Cathedral.
