Santa Ana Soars by

Santa Ana Cathedral with its two towers sits right at the heart of the Vegueta district of Las Palmas. It’s construction was ordered by the Catholic kings of Spain after Gran Canaria was finally conquered in 1478 and was the first artistic building to be built on the Island of Gran Canaria.

It’s construction began around 1500 and took nearly four centuries to complete. Inevitably this resulted in the work of several artist and architects and this is displayed in the evidence of three architectural styles being present in the building: Gothic, Renaissance and Neoclassic.
