The collegiate church of the Divino Salvador, the Baroque building that replaced the mosque of Ibn Adabbás (829 to 830), made a church in 1248 and pulled down in 1671; the new work collapsed in 1679, before it was inaugurated, and was built again. Leonardo de Figueroa closed the vaults and raised the dome, and it was finished in 1712; the upper part of the belfry dates from 1718 to 1719, on the base of the old minaret. Behind the high altarpiece there is a small museum of paintings.
