Church of the Assumption of Our Lady

The church of the Assumption of Our Lady in La Almunia de Doña Godina (province of Zaragoza, Spain) has a tower that is the only vestige of the medieval construction of the Parish Church, which was demolished in the 18th century and replaced by the current baroque factory. The exterior decoration is typically Mudejar with motifs such as corners, zig-zags and multi-armed crosses forming rhombuses made of highlighted brick. Also noteworthy is the presence of discs and friezes made of ceramic, which underwent the restitution of some of their pieces in the restoration carried out in 1960.
