Co-Cathedral of Logroño

The Co-cathedral of Santa María de la Redonda is a co-cathedral located in Logroño, in La Rioja, Spain. The name "redonda" refers to the rounded shape of an earlier church on the site. It had the status of collegiate church from the 15th century when Logrono became a city. The present building was raised to the rank of cathedral in the 20th century. It belongs to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Calahorra y La Calzada-Logroño, which has two other cathedrals. The church has two elaborately decorated towers, each containing a set of bells. The sidewall of the church has a clock split into three faces: one each for the hour, minute and second. The entrance to the church is set in an alcove filled with Christian sculptures, protected by high iron gates and netting to prevent people or birds entering.
