Culture

At the southeastern edge of the town stands the parish church of San Bartolomé, a Gothic religious building that was remodelled during the Baroque period. In the area of the apse, in the first nave bay nearest the apse arch and in two adjoining side chapels, the church preserves Gothic elements from the 14th or 15th century. The 17th-century extension of San Bartolomé includes the façade and the robust bell tower.

The Nevera de La Ginebrosa is one of the buildings associated with ice culture recognized in Aragón as Bienes de Interés Cultural. The communal ice cellar complex of La Ginebrosa is part of the Ruta de las Bóvedas del Frío and is located near the town centre. Of the five former gates in La Ginebrosa’s town wall, only one remains at the southeastern edge of the town.
