The Alcazaba of Almería, located on the Cerro de San Cristóbal in the Spanish city of Almería, is one of the most important monumental and archaeological complexes on the Iberian Peninsula. Its history spans almost a thousand years, which allows us to appreciate the evolution of civil and military architecture during the Arab domination in Al-Andalus. This fortress, built in different phases and periods, consists of three main enclosures:
First Enclosure: Here were homes and bathrooms, forming an urbanized area.
Second Enclosure: Includes the castle and towers from the late medieval Christian period (15th-16th centuries).
Third Enclosure (El Castillo): To the south, connected to the city, and to the north, the Cerro de San Cristóbal, which defines a unique space of great cultural interest.
