As Bishop, he continued construction on the Cathedral of Zaragoza which his predecessor Pedro Tarroja had begun.[2] The project maintained the old mosque, converted into a church, but added it to a head, five apses and a doorway flanked by two square towers.

He accompanied King Pedro III of Aragon[3] in the campaign against Rincón de Ademuz in 1212, participating in the Siege of Al-Dāmūs and Castellfabib.
