Co-Cathedral of St. Nicholas of Bari, Catholic co-cathedral in central Alicante, Spain.

The Co-Cathedral of Saint Nicholas features a blue dome reaching 45 meters high and contains six side chapels surrounding the apse in a Latin cross layout.

Construction of the religious edifice started in 1613 on the foundations of a former mosque, with completion achieved in 1660 under architect Agustín Bernardino's direction.

The building combines different architectural periods, from a 15th-century Valencian Gothic cloister to Renaissance elements and a Spanish Baroque Holy Communion chapel.

Visitors can access the cathedral Monday through Saturday between 17:30 and 20:00, with extended hours until 21:00 on Sundays for religious services.

The cathedral displays contrasting architectural styles, with an austere Doric eastern facade and an Ionic southern facade framing its structural composition.
