MADRID: San Francisco churchEven bigger than the San Isidro Church (Madrid's Cathedral until 1993, when the Almudena Cathedral was inaugurated), the Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi is topped by a massive dome measuring 108 feet (33 metres) in diameter which, surprisingly perhaps for some, is bigger than that of Saint Paul's Cathedral in London and is in fact the 3rd largest in Europe after those of Saint Peter's and Hagia Sophia, and thus of course the largest in Spain.
