Alcazaba, Guadix

The Romans were the first to build here, although the present castle was built during the X and XI centuries by the Moors, on the ruins of a previous Moorish construction from the XVIII century.

In 1489 it was surrendered peacefully to the Catholic Monarchs.

During the 19th century Napoleonic invasion, it was used as a cemetery and after the Spanish Civil War it became a seminary, which explains the classrooms and tennis courts.
