    The Collegiate Church of Santa María la Mayor is one of the numerous collegiate churches of the late Middle Ages and Renaissance in Spain. It is a three-aisled church. The fluted columns with Ionic capitals are particularly striking. A magnificent wooden church is located in the central nave.

    Right next to the Alcazaba of Antequera stands the important Royal Collegiate Church of Santa María la Mayor. Built between 1514 and 1550, it is considered one of the first Renaissance churches in Andalusia, although Gothic elements are still visible. The church is situated on the castle hill above the town of Antequera and can be reached through the monumental Arco de los Gigantes (Arch of the Giants). Its location next to the Moorish fortress and its historic architectural style make it one of the town's most important landmarks.
