The Church of El Salvador in Granada is one of the most emblematic churches in the Albaicín district. Located in the oldest part of the Albaicín, on the site of the former Great Mosque of Granada, considered in its time one of the most beautiful in the Islamic world. The church was one of only two in Granada with the right of asylum, where the penitential garments (sambenitos) of Moriscos tried by the Inquisition were displayed.

The Church of El Salvador is in the Mudéjar style and was built in the 16th century on the remains of the Great Mosque of the Albaicín. It retains some elements of the old mosque, such as its Almohad Ablutions Courtyard.

The Elvira Gate has undergone various transformations throughout its history, the most important being the one carried out during the reign of Yusuf I of the Nasrid dynasty.

A Muslim cemetery extended from the Elvira Gate to the area where Campo del Triunfo is today.

In the city of Granada, which is not lacking in attractions, one particularly stands out: the Alhambra, the Moorish palace that seems like a fairytale from "1001 Nights" set in stone. The highly recommended TV series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" portrays UNESCO World Heritage sites (in German) in short films (each 15 minutes long). The Alhambra is available in the ARD media library at the following link =>> https://www.zdf.de/swr/schaetze-der-welt/page-video-ard-alhambra-spanien-100.html

This bridge is of Arab origin and was strategically located at the entrance to the town to cross the ravine eroded by the Cubillas River. It was declared an architectural-artistic monument in 1922. It also contains a gate to control the entrance to the town to ensure the passage of people wishing to enter the town. It has three large horseshoe arches with spans between seven and eleven meters. Some historians have suggested that its origin may even be earlier, and that it may be Visigothic. This is not a far-fetched idea, since from the dawn of time when the first human settlements occurred in the town, it must have included a way to cross the ravine from one side to the other.
