The church of San Miguel Arcángel was rebuilt in 1516 on a previous church, possibly in the Romanesque or Mudejar style from the 12th century, in order to make it more spacious and encompass the six parishes that already existed in Grajal in the 13th century. It consists of three naves separated by large Tuscan columns, a hall plan, mixing elements of the late Gothic and Renaissance styles, with Baroque vaults. It is built in different stages. Thus, the flared of the portal is the oldest part of the church, Romanesque, and can date back to the s. XII. And the tower, at the foot of the church, is of the Moorish type, made of brick like the whole church, and 40 meters high. It has the peculiarity of having an angled corner. The main chapel is from the s. XVI, late Gothic style, heavily influenced by the Renaissance seal. The transept, the central nave and the lateral ones are made up of baroque vaults with different geometric drawings on plaster, all of this being covered from the 17th century.
