Experience Mosque Of Cristo De La Luz Day Trips & Sightseeing Tours

See the only remaining mosque left in Toledo of its original ten. The Mosque of Cristo de La Luz remains largely as it was in Spain’s Moorish era. The former mosque, which was built in 1000 AD, was converted into a church but its original vaulting and arches survive. Legend has it that when Alfonso VI conquered Toledo for the Christians in 1085, his horse stopped outside the mosque and refused to continue and revealed a statue of Christ with its oil lamp still burning more than three centuries after it was left there.
