Its official name is the Nuestra Senora de la Asuncion, or Our Lady of the Assumption in English, but most just call it the Cordoba Cathedral. The original church was built in 1598 but was almost completely rebuilt in 1677. The ornate style is a mix of Baroque and Neoclassical with 2 short towers on the outer facade. Many of the interior decorations are made from silver.
