This album contains many pictures that didn't make the cut for our Jaen highlights show. For those interested in Renaissance cathedrals, you can see more details but the commentary is quite sparse. If you haven't already, please start with the larger Jaen sideshow which has many more comments on the cathedral: http://picasaweb.google.com/schmitt.dick/JaenSpain#slideshow .

The insert is the city hall across the street from the Cathedral.
