In recent decades this medieval monument has been appreciated and with good reason! It is the old Muslim mosque, later converted into the Christian Hermitage of the Conception of Our Lady. There are records of its existence for more than 1,700 years, and it is supposed to have been built on top of some monumental Roman building from the 1st or 2nd century AD.

The mosque is built on a hill overlooking the town of Almonaster la Real. It is integrated into a complex that includes, in addition to the oratory, an old Muslim fortress attached to a bullring. It is a trapezoidal construction, with an ablution courtyard or sahn and a prayer room or haram. The prayer room consists of five naves of unequal width, with arcades that run transverse to the qibla. The fabric of the building is made of brick, granite blocks and masonry. Carry materials were used for its construction, such as funerary altars, Roman columns and capitals, as well as Visigothic fragments. It is a fascinating historical and architectural place that is worth a visit to appreciate its rich history and unique beauty.
