Jayran Walls and Cerro de San Cristobal, Alcazaba, Almeria, Andalusia, Spain

The Jairan Walls and the Cerro de San Cristobal in the Alcazaba, a 10th century fortified enclosure and royal residence in Almeria, Andalusia, Southern Spain. The castle was dedicated to St Christopher and built to protect the district of La Musalla in times of Rahman III, 1012-28. The wall has 7 towers, 3 square plan of Muslim design, and 4 round of Christian design, erected by order of Alfonso VII in 1147. The Alcazaba itself was begun in 955 by Rahman III and completed by Hayran, Taifa king of Almeria, in the 11th century. It was later added to by the Catholic monarchs. Picture by Manuel Cohen
