Alarba
Village
Alarba is a municipality of the comarca of Calatayud, in the province of Zaragoza, situated at 844 metres of altitude and documented since the 15th century as Afarba, a name that may come from the Arabic al-arbaʔ (the fourth, Wednesday), referring to market day, although a Berber origin has also been proposed. The village stands on what was once a castle, of which only the memory survives in the name of a square; its church of San Andrés, finished in 1760, occupies the site of a former mosque oriented towards Mecca, whose minaret fell into ruin after the Christian conquest of Alfonso I. It now has 91 inhabitants (INE 2025), compared with the 225 it counted in the mid-19th century.
