Alcazaba of Antequera


The Alcazaba of Antequera is a fortress in Antequera, Spain. It was erected in the 14th century to counter the Christian advance from the north, over Roman ruins.
The fortress is rectangular in shape, with two towers. Its keep is considered amongst the largest of Moorish al-Andalus, with the exception of the Comares Tower of the Alhambra.
It is surmounted by a Catholic bell tower/chapel added in 1582.
Connected to the former by a line of walls is the Torre Blanca.
