Another of the highlights of Valencia is its Cathedral. This religious building is currently dedicated to "Santa Maria" (Saint Mary). Some centuries ago, It used to be a mosque, but when El Cid conquered the city, it became a Roman Catholic cathedral. Later the city was reconquered by the Muslims, and the cathedral became again a mosque. But things would change again, when the Christian king, Jaume I, reconquered Valencia. It has been the main Cathedral in Valencia to this day.
