Colegiata de Santa María

The Moorish alcázar (fortress) crowning Alquézar's highest point was replaced in 1099, after Christian conquest, by a fortified monastery. Some of the columns in its delicate cloister are topped by carved capitals depicting animals and flowers, as well as biblical scenes, and the cloister walls are covered with captivating murals. On the upper level is a museum of sacred art.
