Towards the end of the 8th century, the Muslims built a mosque that was enlarged over the years by the Muslims rulers. In 1236 CE the area was conquered by the Christians, and they converted and built a Catholic cathedral again.
What is not told is:
The Visigoth church, built in the 6th century, was built on the remains of an ancient Roman temple, which for itself, was erected on the remains of a very ancient Jewish synagogue!
The Origin is Israel.
