Borja, Municipality in Zaragoza, Spain.
Located in northeastern Spain at 448 meters elevation, Borja extends across 107 square kilometers in the Campo de Borja region of Aragon.
The settlement originated in the fifth century BC as Celtiberian Bursau, later developing under Muslim rule in the eighth century before Christian conquest.
The Collegiate Church of Santa Maria, Church of San Miguel, and Convent of Santa Clara represent the architectural heritage of this municipality.
National road N-122 and regional highways connect Borja to Zaragoza, situated 64 kilometers from the provincial capital.
The municipality gained international attention in 2012 when an amateur restoration of an Ecce Homo fresco transformed the local tourism industry.
