es: "La iglesia de San Gil y Santa Ana es una iglesia prototipo del mudéjar granadino. Se levanta sobre el solar de una antigua mezquita. De nave única con capillas laterales, destacan su amplia cabecera —precedida por un arco apuntado— y las armaduras de su techumbre. Su portada renacentista con grutescos y columnas corintias, fue diseñada por Sebastián de Alcántara, artista de relevancia en la ciudad. La torre, con azulejos y tejas vidriadas, constituye el más bello ejemplo mudéjar de la ciudad. De la antigua mezquita se conserva solamente el antiguo alminar.
En esta iglesa celebró su boda la heroína granadina Mariana Pineda."
en: "The church of San Gil and Santa Ana is a prototype church of Granada Mudejar. It stands on the site of an old mosque. With a single nave with side chapels, its wide chancel stands out —preceded by a pointed arch— and the trusses on its roof. Its Renaissance façade with grotesques and Corinthian columns was designed by Sebastián de Alcántara, an important artist in the city. The tower, with tiles and glazed roof tiles, is the most beautiful Mudejar example in the city. Of the old mosque, only the old minaret remains.
In this church, the Granadan heroine Mariana Pineda celebrated her wedding."
