Monument · La Almunia de Doña Godina, Valdejalón, Zaragoza

The Mudéjar tower belongs to the church of the Assumption of Our Lady, in La Almunia de Doña Godina, capital of the Valdejalón region. It is a brick structure 40 metres high, built in two stages: the first, from the 14th century, square in plan with three storeys decorated with brick bands and interlaced semicircular arches; the second, from the 16th century, octagonal in plan with three tapering storeys, with exterior buttresses and decorative diamond shapes at the base. The present entrance to the building was opened in the 17th century, while the original one remains walled up.
