The Door Of The Apostles. Cathedral Of Murcia.



The palace building that I showed yesterday, as I said, is in the square of the Apostles. This door is given the name to the plaza.

The door of the Apostles (Puerta de los Apóstoles), 1488, Diego Sánchez de Almazán. Built in a Gothic style, its name comes from the sculptures of the four apostles on the door jambs. There is a shield in honour of Queen Isabel the Catholic. (Source: Concejalia de Turismo)
