San Salvador de Teruel

The tower of the church of Salvador de Teruel is a Mudéjar Aragonese style building built in the 14th century. At that time, the Muslim population still lived in the city thanks to the privileges granted by Alfonso II. The tower imitates the structure of the Almohad minaret with two concentric square towers. Once the restoration work was completed, between 1991 and 1993, it became the first Mudejar tower to be visited in the city of Teruel.
