Catedral San Salvador, Oviedo, Asturias, España.

La Santa Iglesia Basílica Catedral Metropolitana de San Salvador de Oviedo es una catedral de estilo gótico que se encuentra en la ciudad de Oviedo (Principado de Asturias, España). Es conocida también como Sancta Ovetensis, refiriéndose a la calidad y cantidad de las reliquias que contiene.

Comenzó a edificarse a finales del siglo XIII por la sala capitular y el claustro, y su construcción se prolongó durante tres siglos hasta el remate de la torre a mediados del siglo XVI. Posteriormente se añadiría una girola en el siglo XVII además de diversas capillas anexas a las naves laterales.

La iglesia está emplazada en el lugar del anterior conjunto catedralicio prerrománico del siglo IX, alguno de cuyos edificios han sobrevivido. Por esta razón y lo dilatado de la construcción del edificio actual, este contiene estructuras de estilo prerrománico (Cámara Santa), románico (bóvedas y apostolado de la Cámara Santa), gótico (fachada, naves y claustro), renacentista (remate de la torre) y barroco (Girola, Capilla del Rey Casto y otras capillas).

La Cámara Santa, del siglo IX, está declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco y alberga las joyas más preciadas de la catedral: las cruces de la Victoria y de los Ángeles, símbolos de Asturias y de la ciudad de Oviedo respectivamente, la Caja de las Ágatas y el Arca Santa, que contiene un gran número de reliquias entre las que se encuentra el Santo Sudario.

En 2015, en la aprobación por la Unesco de la ampliación del Camino de Santiago en España a «Caminos de Santiago de Compostela: Camino francés y Caminos del Norte de España», fue incluida, con la Cámara Santa, como uno de los bienes individuales (n.º ref. 669bis-005) del camino primitivo.

The Santa Iglesia Basilica Catedral Metropolitana de San Salvador de Oviedo is a Gothic-style cathedral that is located in the city of Oviedo (Principality of Asturias, Spain). It is also known as Sancta Ovetensis, referring to the quality and quantity of the relics it contains.

It began to be built at the end of the 13th century by the chapter house and the cloister, and its construction lasted for three centuries until the top of the tower in the middle of the 16th century. Later an ambulatory was added in the seventeenth century in addition to various chapels attached to the side naves.

The church is located on the site of the previous pre-Romanesque cathedral complex from the 9th century, some of whose buildings have survived. For this reason and the length of the construction of the current building, it contains structures of pre-Romanesque style (Holy Chamber), Romanesque (vaults and apostolate of the Holy Chamber), Gothic (facade, naves and cloister), Renaissance (top of the tower ) and baroque (Girola, Chapel of the Chaste King and other chapels).

The Holy Chamber, from the 9th century, is declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco and houses the cathedral's most precious jewels: the Victoria and the Angels crosses, symbols of Asturias and the city of Oviedo respectively, the Caja of the Agates and the Holy Ark, which contains a large number of relics among which is the Holy Shroud.

In 2015, in the approval by Unesco of the extension of the Camino de Santiago in Spain to "Caminos de Santiago de Compostela: French Way and North of Spain Paths", it was included, with the Holy Chamber, as one of the individual assets (ref. no. 669bis-005) of the primitive path.
