Church of San Nicolás de Bari

The Church of San Nicolás de Bari exhibits intricate brickwork patterns on its exterior walls and features detailed wooden ceilings throughout its interior spaces.

Construction of the church began in the 12th century, incorporating architectural elements from both Christian and Muslim traditions during the medieval period in Spain.

The church represents the fusion of Islamic and Christian architectural techniques through its Mudéjar design, which emerged from the coexistence of different religious communities.

Visitors can access the church through its main entrance on the north side, with guided tours available during regular opening hours from Tuesday to Sunday.

The church contains original geometric patterns crafted by Muslim artisans who continued working on Christian buildings after the Reconquista period.
