Almería - Alcazaba 
On a hill to the west, dominating the town, is the Alcazaba, a Moorish fortress which was built in the reign of Caliph Abderrahman III of Córdoba, enlarged by Almansor and completed by Hairan, and later extended by the Emperor Charles V. Particularly impressive is the massive 15th century keep, the Torre del Homenaje (Tower of Homage), with a Gothic doorway and the arms of the Catholic Monarchs. Concerts and dramatic performances are given here during the August fiesta.
