Jaén Cathedral, the Cathedral of the Assumption, was designed mainly by Andrés de Vandelvira, with Eufrasio López de Rojas on the facade. Ventura Rodríguez designed the Sagrario, executed by Manuel Martín Rodríguez. The article names no client, and the cathedral belongs to the Catholic Diocese of Jaén. The infobox gives 1551 to 1801. The text says the facade began in 1660, interior work ended in 1724 and the Sagrario was consecrated in 1801. The infobox says dedicated in 1660, which conflicts with the text saying it was consecrated before 1660.
The article names Renaissance, Baroque for the facade and Neoclassical for the choir. It gives no materials or dimensions.
The 1755 Lisbon earthquake damaged it. It was declared a monument in 1931 and added to Spain's World Heritage tentative list in 2012. It is an active cathedral, and a copy of the Veil of Veronica is displayed periodically. The article gives no hours.
