Sacra Capilla del Salvador (Sacred Chapel of the Savior of the World). Built between 1536 and 1559 by Diego de Siloé and Andrés de Vandelvira, under the patronage of Francisco de los Cobos (personal secretary of Carlos V emperor), as a pantheon annexed to his palace in Úbeda and part of an extensive artistic program (of which his Palace, a University and a Hospital were part). It is the most ambitious undertaking of all the private religious architecture of the Spanish Renaissance. It is part of the Renaissance monumental complex of the city, which together with that of Baeza, was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2003. Úbeda, Jaén province. Andalusia. Spain.
