Chapel of Santa Ana, Burgos Cathedral, Gothic chapel in Burgos Cathedral, Spain

The Chapel of Santa Ana displays a two-section star-ribbed vault structure integrated into the northern wall of Burgos Cathedral's main nave.

Construction of the chapel began in 1477 under Juan de Colonia and finished in 1488 by his son Simon, combining two previous chapels.

The main altarpiece, created between 1486 and 1492 by Gil de Siloe, presents the genealogy of the Virgin through biblical figures and religious scenes.

The chapel entrance features two pointed arches with Gothic railings forged by Luis de Paredes in 1495, allowing visitors to view the interior.

The alabaster tomb of Bishop Acuña, sculpted by Diego de Siloe in 1519, stands as a central element despite the bishop's testament requesting simplicity.
