Iglesia de San Gil y Santa Ana

C. Sta. Ana, 1, Centro, 18009 Granada

Mudejar parish church over a former mosque, its facade arch long mistaken for the mosque door.

This guide to the Iglesia de San Gil y Santa Ana in Granada takes on a claim tour guides have repeated for generations, that the brick arch tucked into the plaza wall was once the mosque's original door. It follows historian Cesar Giron, who spent years combing archives and parish records for his book on Granada's churches and looked closely at how the arch was actually built. Look up at the Mudejar bell tower above the plaza, raised in the fifteen sixties, before you turn your attention to the arch itself.
