The Cathedral of Buenos Aires was rebuilt several times since its humble origins in the 16th century. The present building is a mix of architectural styles, with an 18th-century nave and dome and a severe, 19th-century neoclassical façade without towers. The interior keeps precious 18th-century statues and altarpieces, as well as abundant Neo- Renaissance and Neo-Baroque decoration.
It had been the home church of Archbishop Jorge Mario Bergoglio before he became the world's first Latin American pontiff in March.
The Window shows Saint Martin who is best known for his using his sword to cut his cloak in two, to give half to a beggar clad only in rags in the depth of winter.
