The largest Andalusi cemetery found in Spain, on the slope of Mount Gibralfaro: two funerary mosques of the 12th and 13th centuries, each a single hall with a mihrab, part of a mausoleum and prayer spaces, with ashlar tombs and stucco eight-pointed stars. Found in the late 1980s, it opened in April 2023 and can be visited by booking ahead.
