Segovia’s Cathedral stands atop the hill in the old town, fronting a plaza that has an excellent market.

Like many historical structures, the cathedral has been repaired and reconstructed lately, which I was glad to see because the last time I was here I could not get inside.

The towering columns are clean, showing the master stonework. The detail photo below reveals the remnants of paint that once adorned the columns.

There’s plenty of gold leaf around the pipe organ as well:

Note the people in the photo above, which provide scale to the size of this structure. I’ll post again about some of the art in the cathedral. Check back soon!
