The Mudéjar revolt of 1264-1266 was a significant moment in Spanish history. The Muslim subjects of Castile, driven by encouragement from Muhammad I, rose up in rebellion in the regions of Andalusia and Murcia. The revolt was fueled by a combination of religious and political grievances, as the Mudéjars, who were Muslims living under Christian rule, sought to regain their autonomy and protect their rights. The rebellion saw widespread bloodshed and destruction as the Muslim rebels clashed with Castilian forces. The revolt highlighted the complex and tense relationship between the Christian majority and Muslim minority in medieval Spain. It also demonstrated the enduring legacy of Islamic culture and influence during this period, known as the Mudéjar architecture, which combined Islamic and Christian architectural styles. #SpainHistory #MudéjarRevolt #MuslimRebellion #Andalusia #Murcia
