Cadrete is a small town in north-east Spain, close to Zaragoza. It is notable for its Muslim castle, Mudejar Church and famous Cardoons. More recently, a massive wind-turbine has been installed at less than 300 metres away from the village, producing several landscape damages and high noise rates for town's inhabitants.

History

[edit | edit source]

Cadrete (Qadrit in Arabic) was founded as a Moorish settlement within Al-Andalus. The Moors built a fortress on top of a steep hill around which the medieval town developed. The old mosque was later converted into a Moorish-style church during the period of the Reconquest.
