Guided tour of Arcos de la Frontera

Moorish Stone

Where you are standing now

After walking along the side of the main façade of St. Mary's, you can see a large block of stone just before some steps. Of Arab origin and probably a remnant from the Arab mosque which stood on this site before the church was built on top of it, the stone is decorated with a typical motif - in this case a tree. What could the tree signify?
