Mudéjar Art is the result of the fusion of Arab and Christian elements that give rise to a genuine and proper style, reflecting a context of coexistence and melting pot of Muslim, Christian and Jewish cultures. On 28 November 1986 the most important monuments of the Mudejar Architecture of Teruel were incorporated into the World Heritage List: tower, roof and dome of the Cathedral of Santa María de Mediavilla, the tower and church of San Pedro, the tower of The church of El Salvador and the tower of the church of San Martín.
This inscription confirms the exceptional and universal value of a cultural and natural site that should be protected for the benefit of the whole of humanity.
In the singularity of the Mudéjar of Teruel two very well-differentiated artistic traditions converge, that end up being integrated into a single one, achieving in this way its strong and indisputable personality. One is the Aragonese Islamic tradition and the other is the influence of the Almohad world and other Mudejar foci of the rest of the peninsular territory.
An original feature of the medieval Mudejar towers of Teruel is its location on the road network that runs through them.
