Chapel of St. James
Resplendent 15 th century Gothic. The final homage to the
Lord High Constable of Castile:the unfortunate Don Alvaro de Luna and his wife Doņa Juana de Pimentel repose here in their Gothic sarcophagi, the former flanked by Knights of St. James and the latter by Franciscan friars. The altarpiece was created in the 15 th century by Sancho de Zamora, Juan de Segovia and Pedro Gumiel. The style of its panels is an excellent Spanish-Flemish. At the sides of the Chapel are the tombs of Don Juan de Luna, son of Don Alvaro, Archbishop Don Pedro de Luna, the Archbishop Don Juan de Cerezuela, all 15th century, and Cardinal Boncel y Orbe, who died in 1857.
