Description
In front of the Saint Christopher door, part of Seville Cathedral in Seville, Spain, is "El Giraldillo", a weather vane and it represents the victory of the Christian faith on the Muslim faith. The statue stands on top of an ancient minaret, ‘la Giralda’ at the main ‘individual’ visitor’s entrance to the Roman Catholic Cathedral known as Catedral de Santa MarÃa de la Sede.( Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See).
The cathedral became a Christian church in 1298 AD, and is the third-largest in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
