ancient culture. From this huge Moorish ciradel with three
walled enclosures, visitors have a good view of the city’s
most impressive and important Christian monument, the Cathedral,
dating from 1524, designed more like a fortress than a church

dating from the 18th century, designed by Ventura Rodriguez.
