Roofs Cadiz Spain

From the rooftops of Cadiz's old town, the cathedral's domes rise in a jumble of textures and colors: pale golden stone, terracotta tile, and a smaller cupola glazed in a bold zigzag of blue, green and ochre. It is a view few visitors see, the skyline reserved for anyone willing to climb above the streets.

Cadiz Cathedral, seat of the Diocese of Cadiz y Ceuta, took more than a century to build, from 1722 to 1838, and its roofline reflects that long, layered construction. Domes and cupolas in different styles and materials sit side by side, a rooftop patchwork that tells the story of the building's shifting architects and eras better than its front facade ever could.
