About
The Tower of Iglesia de San Salvador (Spanish: Torre de la Iglesia de San Salvador) is a mudéjar bell tower located in Teruel, Spain.
It was declared Bien de Interés Cultural in 1911.
It has been included in a World Heritage Site, originally called "Mudejar Architecture of Teruel" and later extended.
It is believed that the mudéjar Tower of El Salvador may have been built during the first quarter of the 14th century based on the judges' account in the writings known as the Libro Verde de Teruel.
Its more elaborate decoration and details, together with a more evolved structure than that of San Martín Tower, which it imitates, leads us to regard it as the more recent of the two (that is to say, after 1315-1316).
