The Guadalcabrillas Tower is one of the defensive towers that formed part of the fortification system of Cordoba. These towers were built to protect the city and its surroundings during the medieval period. Although it is not as well known as other monuments in Cordoba, it is an interesting place for lovers of history and architecture.

The Guadalcabrillas Tower is located next to the Guadalquivir River on the Avenida del Alcázar, in the section of the walled enclosure of the Alcázar Viejo and the Orchard of the Alcázar of Córdoba. The Guadacabrilla Tower was built during the reign of Enrique III (1390-1406) by order of the Mayor of Córdoba Luis Sánchez. Its function was to complete the defensive line of the Royal Road from Córdoba to Seville along the right bank of the Guadalquivir.
