Cathedral of St. Mary - the main cathedral of Spain, a typical example of Spanish Gothic.
Over time, the surrounding buildings hid the true size of the cathedral, in addition, the exceptionally uneven terrain of historical Toledo also hinders to appreciate the grandiose dimensions of the building. The main (western) faade opening onto the central square of the city is well opened for review only, besides the main facade of the cathedral, there are also the Archbishops Palace and the main building of the City Hall.
