A mosque of the 9th and 10th centuries, one of only two that survive in the province of Málaga, consecrated as a church when the town passed to Castile in the 15th century. Inside it keeps the layout of the prayer hall and several columns of Roman and Visigothic origin, along with a 15th-century Gothic statue.
