Holy Funerary Chapel of El Salvador del Mundo
The Holy Funerary Chapel of El Salvador del Mundo is a symbol of Úbeda, Jaén. It was designated a historic-artistic monument in 1931.
This detached chapel, the pantheon of Francisco de los Cobos, universal secretary of Emperor Charles V and his main adviser on imperial treasury affairs, is a masterpiece by Diego de Siloé. Its floor plan highlights all the funerary symbolism contained in the rotunda as an evocation of the Holy Sepulchre. Siloé's project was carried out by Andrés de Vandelvira, who created the entire Sacristy.
The result is the Holy Funerary Chapel of El Salvador del Mundo, a church that is on a par with the best Italian Renaissance architecture. It was the most ambitious private religious architecture project of the Spanish Renaissance.
