The enormous stone retable was designed in 1482 by the south Netherlander Pieter Dancart (died 1487), who worked on it until his death; the central part was only finished in 1526 and wings added ca. 1550-1594. It is ca. 18 m high and contains 45 large sculpted panels, each nearly a metre square; it is the largest retable in Spain.
