Alcazaba of Málaga
The Alcazaba of Málaga is a palatial fortified citadel on a central hill in Málaga, Spain, begun in the 11th century and modified through the 14th century. It comprises two concentric walled enclosures with towers and palaces in the inner enclosure and is connected by a walled corridor to the higher Castle of Gibralfaro; remains of a Roman theatre lie on the western slope below the Alcazaba.

As it stood in 1350
The shape it held in its prime.
A double-layered fortress of warm-brown masonry built on a wooded hill, with two concentric curtain walls pierced by multiple square and rectangular towers. The inner citadel sits at the summit with a prominent keep/tower, while the outer enclosure terraces down the slope toward the city and the Roman theatre. Roofs of the residential pavilions are low-tiled, narrow winding streets and courtyards lie within the walls, and a walled corridor ascends the ridge to the higher Castle of Gibralfaro.
