Sight 3: Iglesia de Santa Justa y Rufina

Show sight on map

The Iglesia de las Santas Justa y Rufina is a medieval church in Toledo, Castile-La Mancha, Spain. It is one of a group of so-called Mozarabic parish churches in Toledo, whose existence has been documented since 1156. However, certain material remains reveal the existence in this place of an Islamic construction, which would undoubtedly have to be identified with a mosque. Until very recently, the only testimony of the existence of an Islamic construction consisted of a fragment of arch that, on a Visigothic pilaster, was embedded in the northwest facade of the temple. The reuse of a piece from previous period, combined with the characteristics of the cutting of the arch, allow them to think of an Islamic work dating around 10th century.

Sight 4: Capilla de San Blas

Show sight on map

The chapel of San Blas is a chapel in honour of Saint Blas de Sebaste that is located on the ground floor of the cathedral of Toledo and its octave vault on a square floor plan draws attention to its final funerary destiny. The perception offered of it made it seem dissociated from the cloister, although the architectural elements and its internal structure make it an inseparable part of it, as evidenced by the fact that it lacks direct external access.
