The Old Cathedral of Cuenca, also known as Iglesia del Sagrario, was built in the 16th century and served as the city's main church until the New Cathedral was constructed. Today, it functions as a museum of religious art. Visitors can explore its colonial architecture, including a Mudéjar-style coffered ceiling, and view a collection of paintings, sculptures, and liturgical objects from the 16th to 18th centuries.
