Alhambra, Generalife and Albayzín, Granada.Alcazaba FortressThe Alcazaba, a fortress, is the oldest part of the Alhambra, as is the case of the Vermilion Towers (Torres Bermejas). It is thought that before it was built and before the Muslims arrived to Granada, there were already several constructions in the same area. The first historical reference to the existence of the Alcazaba dates from the 9th century and it is believed that it was then built by Sawwar ben Hamdun during the fights between Muslims and muwalladins [Christians who converted to the Islam and lived among the Muslims]. Views of Granada.Granada Cathedral.On the orders of the Catholic Monarchs, work began on the cathedral in 1523 to Enrique de Egas's Gothic-style plans. It continued under the Renaissance maestro Diego de Siloe, who also designed the façade. Corinthian pillars support his circular Capilla Mayor. Under its dome, windows of 16th century glass depict Juan del Campo's The Passion. The west front was designed by local Baroque artist Alonso Cano. His grave and many of his works are housed in the cathedral. By the entrance arch are wooden statues of the Catholic Monarchs carved by Pedro de Mena in 1677. |
