2 Introduction to Seville Cathedral in Seville, Spain

It took 105 years to build Catedral de Santa María de la Sede. When Seville Cathedral was finished in 1506, its measurements of 443 by 330 feet made it the world’s largest cathedral, a distinction it still holds. To give you a sense of scale, the Roman Catholic cathedral has 15 elaborately crafted doors. Inside, there are 80 side chapels, each with a decorated altar. Among the multiple tombs are two famous Spaniards: Christopher Columbus and Ferdinand III who freed Seville from the Moors and is the city’s patron saint. This World Heritage Site is worth waiting in a long line.
