Villamayor de G\u00e1llego is a municipality located near the confluence of the rivers G\u00e1llego and Ebro with a rich past as an area of Roman and Muslim settlements.<\/p>\n

The Arab presence in the locality is visible especially in the watchtower of the Loma del Pesebre<\/em>. and above all in the inherited tradition that takes shape in the town from the construction of a spectacular landscape of water resources, as well as in a town planning marked by palatial brick houses and the spectacular Mudejar tower of the church of the Assumption of Our Lady, the only preserved element of the Mudejar church and a clear manifestation of the economic strength of the town at the dawn of the modern era.<\/p>\n

The tower was commissioned by the master builder Domingo de Estala in 1587 and is a superb example of late Mudejar architecture. It is divided into two sections: the lower, two-storey section with a square floor plan, and the upper, three-storey octagonal section with corner turrets between them. It combines an exuberant brick decoration with Muel tiles.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Villamayor de G\u00e1llego was established on an ancient village that the Muslims called Mamblas or Almamblas, which could be located near the Torre de la Hacienda<\/em> and the old irrigation ditch. It was founded in the mid-12th century, after the conquest of Saragossa by Alfonso I and as part of the royal plans to establish a population in the areas recently won from the Muslims.<\/p>\n

Dominating the town is the Sanctuary of Nuestra Se\u00f1ora del Pueyo<\/em>, on a hillock where the monumental complex is concentrated, formed by the church, with a corridor or cloister, the santero’s house, a building for residential use and a small hermitage or chapel attached. The sanctuary is a Mudejar-style building built in the 15th century, enlarged in the 16th century and remodelled at the beginning of the 18th century.<\/p>\n

Its natural heritage features the famous Sabina<\/em> de Villamayor, of the albar or white species, which is a bimillenary tree, of great stature, whose rough trunk and solitary stamp in the middle of cultivated fields make it worthy of a stop.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
