The Mudéjar style evident in Toledo shows the influence of the Castilian Mudéjar style in its blind, brick arcades, alongside elements of Almohad and European Gothic art, which are also influential in Mudéjar art in Extremadura. Its defining traits include walls constructed of alternating brick and masonry, façades with friezes of interlinked arches, apertures with framed horseshoe arches, and brick-built bell towers erected on top of masonry cubes sited away from the church as if they were minarets.
