The trip, the gardens, and the building itself are worth it.

From this elevated position on the north bank of the Eresma River, you will get an incredible view of the Alcázar.

This seemingly charming fairy tale palace is a majestic fortress erected between the Eresma and Clamores rivers, which was inhabited by the kings of Castile for many years. Located in the beautiful and strategic Segovia, its origins can be traced back to Roman times, although it was not until the reign of Alfonso VII when the "alcaçar" was mentioned in a document archived in the cathedral. Residence of Alfonso Favorite residence of the Trastámara family, it was the headquarters of the royal archive, the royal treasury and the royal armory, as well as the coronation of Isabel la Católica. The House of the Austrias, officiated here the marriage between Philip II and Anne of Austria. Later, the castle was a state prison. Carlos III established the Royal College of Artillery there, whose 250th anniversary was the last official act of Juan Carlos I. A mandatory visit if we stop in Segovia, the Herrerian patio, the moat, the keep and its views, the throne room of the Catholic Monarchs, the residence of the Burgoña family, the Galera room, the Royal Chamber, the Weapons room, the Royal College of Artillery museum and the general military archive of Segovia, are rooms that illustrate the historical, Royal, and military importance and cultural of this imposing fortress. Its views from the lower part, to the north, leave everyone who contemplates them breathless, being especially spectacular in the snow season.

Having been used exclusively as a Palace for hunting in its surroundings and temporarily inhabited by Francisco Asís de Borbón and Alfonso XII, it is one of the current residences of the Spanish Royal Family. Built on a rectangular plan in Italian style, this palace has an art collection and a hunting museum worth visiting, being located on the Royal Sites Route, close to Segovia and La Granja de San Ildefonso. The palace was built with the permission of Ferdinand VI, tired of the interference in state affairs by Isabel de Farnese, the second wife of his father, Philip V. The queen consort ordered the palace to be built, for the king's peace of mind. However, his death brings Charles III, son of Isabel, to the throne. The latter then lost interest in the old Riofrío hunting reserve and the project remained unfinished, with only the palace and the large plaza built, without gardens.

Fantastic

Near the Iglesia de la Vera Cruz there are impressive views of the Alcázar de Segovia on its northern side. It rises above a cliff, truly impressive!

Segovia A walk around Segovia seeing the gorgeous Aqueduct, Cathederal and Alcazar. All are really impressive. The castle looks like a Disney fairy tale castle and the inside is great. Great views and the displays are superb and there is even a good artillery museum. More gorgeous stuff from Spain. Nice to be surrounded by snow capped peaks too ❤️. That’s the last of the World Heritage sites from around Madrid. I’ll put together a compendium of the best pictures. World Heritage Site No 7. Old Town of Segovia and its Aqueduct including the Cathedral and Alcazar.
