Mudejar routes

Rating: 4,5

(2.144 reviews)
Aragon is the heart of Mudejar, a unique architectural style that stands as a remarkable legacy of Al-Andalus. It is the region where this surprising and beautiful fusion of Islamic and Christian elements is most widespread and the only place where it has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage. From palaces and churches to towers and ceilings, Aragon offers more than 16 routes featuring over 150 Mudejar landmarks. Exploring all of them could take years, though only 10 monuments have been listed by UNESCO. Below, you’ll find the must-see highlights.
