Santa Catalina room

The chapel of Santa Catalina, located at the base of the tower of the Segovia Cathedral, was one of the first parts of the temple to be built, following the design of Juan Gil de Hontañón and completed in 1530. Initially conceived as a funerary chapel, its function has changed several times over the centuries.

In 1924, it was converted into the cathedral's first museum, a space that housed a valuable collection of paintings, sculptures, and other objects. Starting in 2016, the Chapter reorganized the cathedral's exhibition spaces, and the chapel of Santa Catalina was converted into a space focused on goldsmithing and the display of the vestments of the infant Don Pedro, whose remains were found in his tomb in 2019. Additionally, the space features an audiovisual presentation that narrates the infant's story, whose tomb is located in the center of the room.
