Catedral de la Almudena, Madrid.
 
La Santa Iglesia Catedral Metropolitana de Santa María la Real de la Almudena, conocida simplemente como Catedral de la Almudena, es un templo catedralicio de culto católico, dedicado a la Virgen María bajo la advocación de la Almudena.
 
La catedral está ubicada en el centro histórico de Madrid; la fachada principal se encuentra frente al Palacio Real. La fachada del crucero mira hacia la calle de Bailén y el acceso a la cripta se realiza por la cuesta de la Vega, al final de la calle Mayor. A diferencia de la mayoría de templos cristianos, de orientación este-oeste, la catedral tiene una orientación norte-sur, fruto de su concepción como parte integrante del conjunto del Palacio Real.
 
La catedral es el principal templo de la Archidiócesis de Madrid, sede del arzobispo y del capítulo metropolitano.
 
Se trata de un edificio de 102 metros de longitud y 73 de altura máxima, construido desde finales del siglo XIX a finales del XX, en diferentes estilos arquitectónicos: neoclásico en el exterior, neogótico en el interior y neorrománico en la cripta.
 
Fue consagrada el 15 de junio de 1993 por Juan Pablo II,3 en su cuarto viaje a España, siendo la única catedral española consagrada por un papa.
 
La catedral tiene planta de cruz latina, compuesta por una nave central y dos laterales, amplio crucero de tres naves; cabecera curva con girola y cinco capillas radiales. Contrasta el exterior de la catedral, de estilo ecléctico en el que predominan las líneas neoclásicas y barrocas, con el interior, que sigue los patrones del estilo neogótico, incluyendo vidrieras polícromas y triforio.
