Zamora Cathedral
Cathedral of the Saviour, built in the 12th century in late Romanesque style. Its hallmark is the dome of Byzantine influence, covered in stone scales and visible from all over the city. It preserves the Bishop's Doorway, a cloister from a later period and a museum with Flemish tapestries. It stands next to the castle, on the northern edge of the old town.
