Saint Nicholas Co-Cathedral is located on Abad Penalva Square. It was built on the site of an earlier mosque, in a late Renaissance style with few ornaments. Construction was carried out between 1616 and 1652. The cloister dates back to the fifteenth century, although it has been renovated in several occasions since then. In 1959, Saint Nicholas rose to the category of Co-Cathedral, so it now shares its cathedral status with Orihuela Cathedral.

 

We go up Labradores Street, full of palaces and houses from the eighteenth century. Among the palaces on this street we can highlight Maisonnave Palace, current headquarters of the local archives, and Portalet Palace, an interesting visitor centre with exhibitions about Alicante Old Town. At the end of Labradores Street we can find San Cristóbal Square.
