Tarazona

Highlight • Settlement

Not far from the 2315 meter high Sierra de Moncayo is the small town of Tarazona. There is a lot to discover here. In addition to the three-story town hall, which is housed in an imposing Renaissance building with balconies and a loggia on the upper floor, the cathedral, which was built in the 12th century in the French Gothic style, is also worth a visit.

Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Huerta of Tarazona

Highlight • Religious Site

Visiting it is doing a deep review of the history of art in Spain, since in its construction there are spaces where all the styles that have existed since the 12th century, the time when construction began, come together. It is a unique example of a Gothic cathedral with an exceptional Mudejar and Renaissance legacy.

The Tarazona Cathedral was built in the French Gothic style, but it maintains magnificent examples of the Mudejar style, including a Gothic-Mudejar cloister.

Monastery of Santa María de Veruela

Highlight • Religious Site

We are in the monastery of Santa María de Veruela, a magical place in the province of Zaragoza. The monastery combines Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture and is surrounded by a wall. We can also visit the cloister or the exhibition of the Bécquer brothers since they worked and stayed here. Admission is free for children up to 11 years old (€2 for adults) but it is totally worth it if we are interested in the whole story.
