Church of Ejea de los Caballeros

Ejea preserves two great parish churches: Santa María de la Corona, from 1174, in Romanesque style with Cistercian influence (south portal) and a west portal remodeled in Baroque style around 1649-1650; and San Salvador, consecrated in 1222, in the Romanesque-to-Gothic transitional style, built as a fortress-church with a crenellated tower, housing sculptures from the workshop of the Master of Agüero and a mid-15th-century main altarpiece by Blasco de Grañén and Martín de Soria. San Salvador was declared a Monumento Nacional (Spain's heritage designation in force until 1931) in 1931.
