The view of Moclín Castle from Moriscos Street is considered one of the most picturesque in the town center. From this street, which runs through the lower part of the town, you get an upward perspective of the rocky outcrop where the castle stands, with its walls silhouetted against the sky and the white houses in the foreground.

It is located at the entrance to the village along Camino Nuevo, in a rural setting with views of the castle and the valley. It is a landmark on the routes that connect the historic center with trails leading to the Sierra de Moclín.

The Hermitage of San Antón in Moclín is a small, historic church located on the outskirts of the town, in the province of Granada. It is dedicated to Saint Anthony Abbot, patron saint of animals, who is highly venerated in the area. Its origins date back to the modern era (probably the 17th or 18th century), although it has undergone later renovations. Its architecture is simple: a rectangular floor plan, a gabled roof, and a whitewashed façade with a small bell gable.

Located in Moclín, Granada, crowning a hill at approximately 1100 meters above sea level, the fortress stands atop a natural rocky outcrop, overlooking the town and the Granada plain. Also known as Hisn al-Muqlin (“Fortress of the Two Pupils”) during the Nasrid period. Built by the Nasrids in the mid-14th century, after the fall of fortresses such as Alcalá la Real, to reinforce the border with Castile; situated within the northwestern defensive system of the Kingdom of Granada. It suffered severe damage during the Spanish Civil War, was used as a cemetery, and was bombed; partial restorations began in 2010 and continued between 2012 and 2013, although signs of neglect are still evident.

This historic fountain, which has been restored and still contains remains of an old wash house, is almost completely empty. There is a sign indicating that the water is not potable, although it is likely marked with a high concentration of other minerals that may be harmful to health.

Church located in the Granada town of Campotéjar, whose patron saint is carried in procession on the last Sunday in April. This religious building does not have much artistic value except that it houses the town's patron saint. It is worth noting that on the right there is a passage for vehicles whose roof is part of the church itself.

In memory of the man who was Justice of the Peace of Noalejo from 2008 to 2022, the town has named an avenue after him and to show its gratitude, the Town Hall has placed a monolith with an inscription carved in stone.
