| The first manifestations of Aragonese Mudxc3xa9jar have two origins: on the one hand, a palatial architecture linked to the monarchy, which amends and extends the Aljaferxc3xada Palace maintaining Islamic ornamental tradition, and on the other hand, a tradition which develops Romanesque architecture using brickwork rather than masonry construction and which often displays Hispanic-rooted ornamental tracery. | WIKI |
| The Mudxc3xa9jar architecture of Aragon is, on account of the formal solutions adopted and the techniques and materials of construction employed, a specific and extraordinary legacy, as well as a vivid reflection of a moment in history when three cultures with very different roots flourished together on Aragonese soil. | UNESCO |
| Thus, we can identify in these Aragonese monuments the rhombus-shaped mouldings (sebqa), stars, angled and interlaced brick friezes, arrows, lobed and multi-grooved arches, as well as elements of construction characteristic of Islamic art such as alfiz panels, decorated eaves (rafes), and lattice work. | UNESCO |
| Criterion (iv): The Mudxc3xa9jar Architecture of Aragon is an eminently representative example of a type of construction with a unique technology developed over the course of several centuries (12th to 17th) thanks to the co-existence of cultures and the combination of forms and building methods employed by Christians, Muslims, and Jews, through the exchange of their knowledge and experience. | UNESCO |
| It expresses the evolution of Mudxc3xa9jar construction techniques in both structural and formal terms and symbolises the integration of a range of art forms (architecture, ceramics, woodcutting, and painting) as an aesthetic process of approximation to beauty. | UNESCO |
| The particular forms adopted and the exceptional techniques and materials of construction employed are evidence of the characteristics specific to the Mudxc3xa9jar architecture of Aragon. | UNESCO |
| In the case of the Aljaferxc3xada Palace, La Seo in Zaragoza and the church towers in Teruel, written documents have been preserved that record the construction process and allow for the understanding of relevant details, such as the commissioners, participating masters, dates of the works, costs, etc. | UNESCO |
| In these cases, masters in charge of their construction left proof of their work through two inscriptions, one carved and the other one painted, both on the inside walls of these temples. | UNESCO |
