Alcázar de Jerez de la Frontera
The Alcázar of Jerez de la Frontera is a former Moorish alcázar in Jerez de la Frontera, Andalucia, whose core dates to the Almohad period and which later received Christian-era additions. The complex contains a surviving mosque/prayer hall with its minaret (converted to a bell tower), defensive walls with Albarrana towers, a hammam, courtyards and later palace buildings. It is a Bien de Interés Cultural and today sits as a historic site with parkland.

As it stood in 1670
The shape it held in its prime.
A compact, roughly quadrangular fortress of pale yellow rammed-earth and stone, with a battlemented parapet of squared merlons running along the wall tops. The outer and inner curtain walls stand close together with regularly spaced towers; some towers are Albarrana types attached by short arcades. Surfaces show small rectangular putlog/loophole openings and an arched principal gate at the base of a tall tower with a projecting balcony; a minaret-turned-bell-tower rises above the roofs.
