Declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1969 and a member of the Network of Spanish Jewish Quarters. Its architecture corresponds to the mountain model of the area, with half-timbered and adobe façades on a ground floor built in granite stone masonry. Sometimes the façades are covered with Arabic tiles to protect the building from the rain. Its narrow streets and balconied houses make this enclave an extraordinary example of traditional architecture.
