The Baroque period in Huelva, spanning the 17th and 18th centuries, marked a significant shift in architectural style. This was largely influenced by the city's ecclesiastical dependence on the Archbishop of Seville. The architecture of Huelva reaped the benefits of repairs and new buildings erected after the Lisbon earthquake in 1755, with towers adorned with tile-covered spires becoming a distinctive feature. The principal craftsmen of this era were the Maestro Mayor of the Archbishopric, Pedro de Silva, and the local master builder, F. Diaz Pinto. This period saw the emergence of several masterpieces, such as the Church of La Merced, now the Cathedral of Huelva, and the towers of La Concepcion and San Pedro. The Baroque style in Huelva is a testament to the city's rich cultural heritage and continues to captivate visitors to this day.
