The Church of San Gil and Santa Ana is a prime example of Granada's Mudéjar architecture. It stands on the site of a former mosque. Its Renaissance façade, adorned with grotesques and Corinthian columns, was designed by Sebastián de Alcántara, a prominent artist in the city. The tower, decorated with tiles and glazed roof tiles, is the finest example of Mudéjar architecture in the city. Only the old minaret remains of the former mosque. The Granadan heroine Mariana Pineda celebrated her wedding in this church.
