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, éste contiene estructuras de estilo prerrománico (Cámara Santa), románico (bóvedas y apostolado de la Cámara Santa), 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. es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catedral_de_San_Salvador_de_Oviedo The Metropolitan Cathedral Basilica of the Holy Saviour or Cathedral of San Salvador (Spanish: Catedral Metropolitana Basílica de San Salvador, Latin: Sancta Ovetensis) is a Roman Catholic cathedral and minor basilica in the centre of Oviedo, in the Asturias region of northern Spain. The Cathedral of San Salvador of Oviedo today displays an unusual array of different architectural styles, from Pre-Romanesque to Baroque, including Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance parts. It began as a large Pre-Romanesque basilica in the present location of the Gothic cathedral, but nothing more is known about that first building, built by order of King Alfonso II of Asturias. The cathedral was also called Sancta Ovetensis; owing to quantity and quality of relics contained in the Cámara Santa (English: Holy Chamber). The Holy Chamber is the only surviving portion of the ancient high-medieval complex. It was built to keep such relics and treasures associated with the Asturian Monarchy as the Cross of the Angels, Victory Cross, and the Agate Box or Agate Casket. The chief feature of the cathedral is the "Camara Santa", with its venerable relics. Bishop Pelagius relates that the Agate Box, a coffer made by the disciples of the Apostles and containing the most precious relics of the Holy City, was taken from Jerusalem to Africa, and after residing in several locations was finally placed at Oviedo by Alfonso II. In the 16th century, Bishop Cristóbal de Sandoval y Rojas wished to open it, but could not, being overcome with religious fear. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedral_of_San_Salvador,_Oviedo
