•The Gothic style: it started in Spain as a result of Central European influence in the twelfth century (alternating with Romanesque).

•The High Gothic arrives through the pilgimage route, the Way of Saint James (13th century).

•The most important Gothic styles in Spain after the 13th century are:

•the Levantino, characterized by

•its structural achievements and

•the unification of space.

•the Isabelline Gothic, made under the Catholic Monarchs.

•The Gothic style was sometimes adopted by the Mudéjar architects, who created an mixed style, employing European techniques and Spanish-Arab decorations.
