The Village

For good reason, Mojacar's Old Town is considered one of the most beautiful in Spain. Many structures from Arab times still stand, and from the viewing points, you can enjoy the most beautiful horizons, both towards the sea and inland.

Statues to Mojaqueras

Mojácar is home to two statues in honour ir “mojaqueras”. The statue of “La Mojaquera” (Mojácar woman) has stood in front of the Church since 1989. Sculpted in marble and dressed in the typical attire, she holds the Arab scarf with her teeth and carries the water vessel that was used to carry the precious liquid from the fountain. Located in the Plaza Rey Alabez, next to the parking area, it is a bronze sculpture, symbolizing the woman changing their shoes when entering and leaving the village. You can read a “güajira mojaquera” (a popular folk song).

Places to Visit

With wonderfully preserved Arab structures, an impressive 16th century Church and a viewpoint offering stunning views of nearby beaches, this is a perfect day trip for all those interested in history.

Santa Maria Church

The church was built at the end of the 16th Century (1560) over the remains of an earlier mosque. Converted to Christian use following the Reconquest, the building served both as a religious centre and as a defensive fortress. Standing out is the simplicity of its interior, which houses a beautiful and significant 1960s fresco, a work by an itinerant artist. The church’s altarpiece was lost during events in the Civil War. Its small collection of religious images includes those of San Agustín and Nuestra Señora del Rosario, the village’s two patron saints.
