The cathedral is a majestic renaissance building. Its architect, Andrés de Vandelvira, designed a very harmonious cathedral; the best perception of its harmony, it is when you go upstairs, and you look at the cathedral from the upper galleries. To visit the Cathedral, it is necessary to pay 6 euros, including the entry an audio guide. The texts are of high quality, but perhaps too technical, for those who do not master the technical vocabulary, referring to architectural elements. Enjoy!

The cathedral is one of the stonemason-architect Vandelvira’s works. Perhaps the most impressive details inside the cathedral can be found by looking towards the back where one can see the original narrow-span arch and the much wider span of Vandelvira’s work. The jump in scale is a measure of the spectacular change that he brought about and, together with the quality of the decorative carving, it amply demonstrates his engineering and architectural skills. A climb up the tower provides excellent views of the town: beware when the bells strike the hour!

La Sinagoga del Agua has been discovered in 2007 and opened to public visits in 2010 in the monumental city of Úbeda by the family Crespo- López. It is a totally private initiative of restauration of a space hidden into several houses belonging to different families where they were living a normal life, with no idea about the greatness of the place walled into their houses. The visit costs 4,50€ per person (3,50€ kids under 12 and groups over 15 persons). All visits are guided IN SPANISH and last about 30 minutes. We have written information in ENGLISH, FRENCH, GERMAN, ITALIAN and BRAILLE Private guided visits are available, booking required, outside of the opening timetable (see calendar on web site) Information and booking: Artificis

This was very moving. After seeing many ancient Christian and Muslim houses of worship and artifacts, it was refreshing to visit this gem representing the important presence of the Jewish population of Spain
