Mesones de Isuela is visible from afar because of its majestic castle, which, with a surface area of more than 3,000 m2<\/sup> and a robust presence, dominates the valley of orchards and the foothills of the Buitrera mountain range.<\/p>\n

This fortress, possibly of Templar origin, belonged to the Luna lineage and with a Gothic style construction with a military function, hides in its interior one of the Mudejar jewels of the town: a Mudejar ceiling that is unparalleled in Europe. It is located inside one of the six cylindrical towers that reinforce the exterior of the castle and served as a chapel. It is a very unique example of a hexagonal armature made up of 96 panels painted with as many angels with candles.<\/p>\n

The decoration is completed by a frieze of plant and animal motifs and the arms of the archbishop of Zaragoza, Don Lope Fern\u00e1ndez de Luna, patron of this work.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Mesones de Isuela was, since the 13th century, a Mudejar majority town and its traces are still very present.<\/p>\n

At the foot of the castle lies the village where the parish church of La Asunci\u00f3n was built in the Mudejar style in the 16th century and, although it had later additions in the 18th century, it maintains its Mudejar origins intact.<\/p>\n

The hallmark of this style is the small but beautiful tower at the foot of the church, built in brick on a masonry base. The tower, built on a single nave covered by star-shaped rib vaults, consists of two sections. The lower one has a square floor plan, a Hispano-Muslim minaret structure and is decorated with multi-armed crosses forming lozenges. The upper one is octagonal and its semicircular arches were opened to house the bells and the clock, for which part of the original openings and decorative panels had to be broken.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
