This is the Cathedral of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands, which are an autonomous region in the Kingdom of Spain. Las Palmas is the largest and most historic city in the Canary Islands, having served as pit-stop for mariners between Spain and the Americas. Christopher Columbus stopped here at Las Palmas in on his way to America. The Cathedral is probably the oldest structure in the city, dating to sometime in the early 1500s.
