MANGANA SQUARE AND TOWER

MANGANA SQUARE AND TOWER

This place offers history and architecture, with remnants of past cultures and vantage points that provide breathtaking views of the ancient and modern city.
Once the site of an Arab fortress, later a Jewish quarter, and then a noble Castilian district. Now a public square displaying remains of an Andalusian palace, synagogue, and church. The Mangana Tower, the city’s clock since the 16th century, and panoramic viewpoints are highlights.
