CATHEDRAL: <\/strong>Why is it called ‘Cathedral’? Because it is the church where the bishop has his seat (Latin word: cathedra; literally, ‘chair’ as in the academic sense). It is the first cathedral on the Pilgrims Way to Santiago de Compostela. The ground plan is Latin cross, with a central nave and two aisles with chapels and an apse.<\/p>\r\n

ATRIUM: <\/strong>a (usually) covered area with columns to access the building. The steps at the entrance are a sign of praise to God.<\/p>\r\n

CAMPANA MARÍA (‘MARIA’ BELL): <\/strong>Pamplona Cathedral has the biggest bell still in use in Spain. It weighs 12 tonnes and was cast in 1584.<\/p>\r\n

BAPTISTERY: <\/strong>A place reserved for the veined marble baptismal font (19th<\/sup> century), located next to the Gospel and close to the chapel of St John the Baptist.<\/p>\r\n

GRILLE IN FRONT OF THE MAIN ALTAR: <\/strong>Dated in 1517, and made by Guillermo Ervenat. It is possibly the most elaborate one of its type in Spain.<\/p>\r\n

PRESBYTERY: <\/strong>The space that surrounds the main altar, reserved for officiating priests in masses and other ceremonies. It contains a 12th<\/sup>-century carved image of Santa María del Sagrario<\/em>, also known as Santa María la Real<\/em> or Santa María de Pamplona<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n

STALLS: <\/strong>Seats reserved for the canons, made of walnut, cherry and box wood. Year: 1540.<\/p>\r\n

STAINED GLASS WINDOWS: <\/strong>Created to close windows, their purpose is to give colour to the inside of the church to try and make it resemble the Kingdom of Heaven.<\/p>\r\n

ORGAN: <\/strong>Situated to the left of the main altar, it was reconstructed in 1946. It has nearly 2,700 tubes, of which 1,500 were installed by the former Roques (1882); then around 550 of German origin by OESA (1946), and the rest –over 660– from the German company Laukhuff.<\/p>\r\n

APSE: <\/strong>An ambulatory (corridor) located at the rear of the presbytery. It has its origins in large-scale mediaeval pilgrimages.<\/p>\r\n

ALTAR PIECES: <\/strong>Artistic graphics that are used to explain passages from the Bible or the lives of the Saints. Organization: flats horizontally and streets vertically.<\/p>\r\n

CLOISTER: <\/strong>A gallery with decorated arches that provides access to the different parts of the cathedral.<\/p>\r\n

LARDER: <\/strong>The first part of the cathedral, built for the communal life of the canons in the 11th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\r\n

REFECTORY: <\/strong>The dining room of the canons. It was also used for sessions of the old Parliament of Navarre. It was also used as a chapel –dedicated to St Francis Xavier– and is now a multi-purpose room.<\/p>\r\n

KITCHEN: <\/strong>A space next to the dining room where food was prepared for canons, pilgrims and paupers. Its 27-metre height is greater than that of the central nave of the cathedral.<\/p>\r\n

BURIALS: <\/strong>MAUSOLEUM: King Carlos III of Navarre and his wife Leonor de Trastámara are buried in the central nave. TOMBS: Sancho Sánchiz de Oteiza in the cathedral, Garro husband and wife, Miguel Sánchez de Asiain and Espoz y Mina in the cloister, and Bishop Arnaldo de Barbazán in a chapel dedicated to him. TOMBS IN THE CLOISTER: the slabs around the cloister cover 328 tombs, now used as columbariums to hold cremated ashes.<\/p>\n <\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
