Cervera de la Cañada, Church of Santa Tecla

Although the UNESCO World Heritage inscription includes ten component buildings of this style, the long list of monumental buildings preserved in Aragon, especially in the province of Zaragoza, is just the tip of the iceberg of a rich culture created through the exchange of knowledge and experience between Christians, Muslims and Jews. This acted as a true avant-garde movement in the Middle Ages and put its own stamp on each town’s architecture, influencing urbanism, the landscape and society.
