El Torreón

Built in the 1676 and reformed a century later. It is almost entirely Renaissance in style and has a Latin cross plan divided into three naves separated by semicircular arches resting on rectangular pilasters. The transept is covered by a hemispherical vault on pendentives and a denticulated ring ending in a lantern, and the arms and the presbytery are covered by half-barrel vaults with lunettes.

Above the entrance portico is the choir, which has a rococo style mixtilinear cornice that receives the wooden balustrade with the same profile. Underneath it is an interesting wooden doorway made by Bartolomé de la Cruz Arjona, a Cordovan living in Frigiliana, when he was only 23 years old. The main façade opens onto an atrium with an iron gate. Above its doorway, which consists of a semicircular arch on pilasters, there is a coat of arms of Bishop Fray Alonso de Santo Tomás.

The town of Frigiliana has had three hermitages: the Santo Cristo, Nuestra Señora de la Escalera and San Sebastián, all three of which were modestly built and enjoyed popular fervour. These hermitages perished in the flames during the Civil War of 1936.

The Ermita del Ecce Homo, or Ermita del Santo Cristo de la Caña as it is known by the locals, is a place of cultural interest to learn about the tradition of the Baroque Christian festivities in Frigiliana. On Holy Wednesday the Ecce Homo, a polychrome wood carving in the neo-Baroque style made in the second half of the 20th century, is carried in procession from this hermitage to the Church of San Antonio.

Built by D. Iñigo Manrique De Lara, fifth Lord of Frigiliana and I Count of the Villa in 1640, placing his coat of arms on it. It is attached to the rear elevation of a house and was designed to supply the population and water animals, and was originally known as "La Fuente Nueva". Walking through the old town you will find it down Chorruelo street on the left.

This building was probably built at the beginning of the 17th century as a granary, stables and storehouse for farm implements. It has a rectangular floor plan with a courtyard inside and is built on two levels with rammed earth walls with stone walls. The arches and pillars are made of brick, as is the entrance doorway.

The remains of the Moorish castle in Frigiliana do not know the exact date of its construction, although some authors suggest it was built in the 9th century, coinciding with the revolt of Omar Ben Hafsun against the emir of Córdoba, whose military actions reached here, while others date it to the 11th century, coinciding with the construction of other similar enclosures by the Almoravids.

Part of the exterior layout is known, thanks to the preservation of some low walls and remains of walls, which would place the castle covering the entire crown of the Lízar hill. It is assumed that the defence of the castle would have had several towers and at least one access from the south side, towards the village, although it may also have had another gate on the north side, an easier access point.

An old silo built in 1767 where the surplus grain was stored in years of good harvest to be distributed in bad times. Although the institution of the granary is mentioned from 1749 onwards, it is very likely that it was instituted in 1640, the year in which Frigiliana was constituted as an independent town.

It is currently a private space occupied by dwellings, with only the brick arcades of its main elevation and its basements remaining from its former structure.
