The Aragonese Mudejar architecture is an artistic movement within the Mudejar art that has its center in Aragon (Spain). The chronology of the Aragonese Mudejar goes from the 12th century to the 17th century and includes more than a hundred architectural monuments located, predominantly, in the valleys of the Ebro, Jalón and Jiloca, where there was a large population of Mudejars and Moors, who maintained their workshops and craft traditions. The architectural Mudejar in Aragon takes on functional schemes preferably from the Cistercian Gothic, although with some differences.
>p> It is characteristic the extraordinary ornamental development shown by the bell towers, such as the one depicted on the 2 euro commemorative coin. The tower of the church of El Salvador in Teruel is a building of the Aragonese Mudejar in Spain listed in 1986 as World Heritage. It was erected during the splendour of the kingdom of Aragon in the fourteenth century, when even the Muslim population survives in the city thanks to the privileges of Alfonso II.
