It is the only mosque in Spain that has survived practically intact to this day in a rural area. It was built between the 9th and 10th centuries and is located inside the walled remains of the Almonaster Castle. After the reconquest it was converted into a rural Christian hermitage. And later the Plaza de Toros was attached to it. It is an essential visit if you are in the Sierra de Aracena. The mosque is small but very well preserved and there are also wonderful views.
