___After his proclamation as "Prince of Believers", that is,
Caliph, Abd-al-Rahman III ordered in 936 AD the construction 
of a palace complex for his favorite Zahra ("flower" in Arabic).
Construction took approx. 25 years and included not only a
magnificent palace with gardens and fish ponds, but also a
great Mosque, baths, schools of learning, and other dependences.
Marble, jasper, and other costly materials were used lavishly.
But in 1010 all this magnificence was destroyed by the populace
of Córdoba, revolted against the Caliph. For centuries the ruins
remained in complete oblivion until their discovery in 1944.

___ The province of Granada is dominated by Spain's highest mountain chain,
the Sierra Nevada, whose lower southern slopes are known as the
Alpujarras. This region represents the last Muslim stronghold in Spain.
The villages resisted a series of royal edicts demanding their forced
conversion to Christianity and in 1568 rose up in a final, short-lived
revolt. This led to the expulsion of all the Spanish Moors and the
Alpujarras were repopulated with over 12,000 families from the North of
Spain. The villages, however, have retained their traditional Berber
architecture - terraced clusters of grey-white box-shaped houses with
flat clay roofs.

___ Some say that the name Albaicin means "quarter of the falconers", 
but most historians prefer "quarter of the people of Baeza". When
the Moors were driven by the Christians out of the city of Baeza, near
Jaén, in the 13th century, they fled to Granada and re-settled on the
northern part of the hill, creating a suburb which took on the name of
their former home. Most of what we now call Albaicín was in fact the 
Alcazaba, the Moorish citadel. Only the western wall of this fortress 
still exists.

___ Very close to the Alcazaba there is the Gibralfaro Castle. 
Originally it was a Phoenician palace. In the XIVth century Nasrid king 
Yusuf I built over it the fortress which is conserved until today. Two 
of its towers are connected by ducts with the Alcazaba.

___ Moisés Maimónides (1135-1204), also known as Moses ben Maimon,
was the most important Jewish philosopher of the Middle Ages. Born in
Córdoba at a time when about one-fifth of the people in Southern
Spain were Jews, he and his family fled to Cairo after the city was
taken by the Almohads. There Maimónides worked as a physician but spent
much time studying the Old Testament and the Jewish Law. In his later
years he became so famous that King Richard of England asked him to be
his royal physician, but Maimónides preferred to stay in Cairo, where
he became chief rabbi and physician to Saladin, sultan of Egypt and Syria.

___ Mojácar is a coastal town in the province of Almería whose origin 
is obscure. Some historians claim that this town was founded by
Iberian tribes, while others maintain that its origin is Carthaginian.
Nevertheless, the Arabs were the ones who gave this location the 
physical aspect that still holds today. In that time it was an 
important stronghold on the road from Murcia to Almería. In 1453 it was
conquered by Alonso Fajardo, mayor of Lorca. Its walls, which preserve
various relics such as the gates of the city, the tower, and the arch 
of Luciana, date back to that time period.

__ The Calahorra Tower of Córdoba was built by the Moors and originally
consisted of two towers connected by an arch. A third tower was added 
in the XIVth century under Christian rule. This fortress represents the
three great monotheistic religions of the world, and is a reminder of 
the time in which Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived in peace and 
harmony in the city of Córdoba.

__ The Great Mosque of Córdoba, whose construction was
initiated in 784 under the rule of Abd-al-Rahman I, is
irreplaceable proof of the flourishing and splendor of 
the Umayyad Caliphate of Al-Andalus (929-1031). This 
impressive monument harbors one of the most beautiful 
architectural designs ever carried out, with the nineteen
aisles of its hall containing a forest of columns, the
curious overlapping arches and the ribbed cupola.

__ The Giralda Tower was built between 1172 and 1198 as a minaret
of Seville's Mosque. It is believed that the Giralda Tower served
as an astronomical observatory for the world-renowned astronomers 
of Al-Andalus. When the city of Seville was negotiating its 
surrender to the Castilian troops of King Fernando III "the Saint" 
in 1248, the Moors tried to impose the destruction of the Giralda, 
ashamed that one of the most valued symbols of Islam could pass 
onto Christian hands. Prince Alfonso X --the future Wise King and 
an astronomer himself-- vehemently denied the request, threatening
to kill all the Moors of Seville if the tower was not left untouched.

__The Alhambra of Granada is the foremost example of Muslim civil
architecture in the West. This unique building is a fortress, residence,
and royal city all in one. Alhambra, means "Red Castle" in Arabic, a 
name derived from the color of its walls. Granada witnessed the end of 
Arab rule in Spain when Muhammad Abu' Abd Allah (Boabdil), the last 
Nasrid king, surrendered the city to the Catholic Kings on January 2, 
1492. Legend has it that Boabdil could not help bursting into tears 
when for the last time he turned to look back at the Alhambra. His 
mother, Ayesha, reproached him with a sentence that has become famous:
"You may well weep like a woman for what you could not defend like a man".

___ The Elvira Gate was the main door of access to the city of Granada. It
is one of the oldest as well, dating from the IX century, although what
is conserved to this date was built in the XI century. It is situated 
in the Albaicín quarter. Its name (Bab Ilbira) probablemente derives 
from the fact that it stood at the beginning of the road that connected 
Granada with the neighboring city of Madinat Ilbira, today disappeared.

___ The magnificent Gardens of Generalife, contiguous to the 
Alhambra, testify to the genius of Al-Andalus engineering. Generalife 
is thought to derive from the Arabic "Jennat al-Arif" meaning Gardens 
of Arif (the architect). The capture of Granada by the Christian troops
of Isabel of Castile and Fernando of Aragon was hailed as a triumph
throughout Christendom, even celebrated at St. Paul's Cathedral in
London with a "Te Deum". It is said that the first Christian knight
to set foot on the Generalife Gardens was a Scotsman.

___ The name Granada is ancient and mysterious. It may mean "great 
castle", for the Roman fortress which once stood on the Albaicín 
quarter. When the Moors came here, the town was largely inhabited by 
Jews, for which they called it Gharnatah-al-Yahud - Granada of the 
Jews. Coincidentally, Granada also means pomegranate in Spanish. Hence
this fruit has become the symbol of the city and appears as such in 
Spain's coat of arms.

___Almería was founded by Abd-al-Rahman III in 955 AD. Only one
century after its foundation, the city attained such a prosperity that
it was said that "When Almería was Almería, Granada was but its farm" 
(Cuando Almería era Almería, Granada era su alquería). From the end of
the Caliphate of Cordoba (1031) to the arrival of the Almoravids in
Al-Andalus (1085), Almería rose as the most important city of Muslim
Spain. The Alcazaba, built in the X century, dominates the town and is
the best preserved Moorish fortress in Spain.

__ The Cathedral of Sevilla was built adjacent to the Giralda Tower, 
with the purpose of making the latter the belltower of the former. The
terrain it occupies was previously occupied by Seville's mosque, which 
itself had been built over a Visigothic church. This impressive building
is the third largest cathedral of the world, after St. Peter in Rome 
and St. Paul in London.

__The city of Jaén, capital of an important Moorish principality and
later of the Nasrid kingdom of Granada, preserves part of the net of 
paved streets constructed by the Moors. This is especially notorious
in the district of La Magdalena. The city was captured in 1246 
by the armies of king Fernando III of Castile, which forced Nasrid king
Muhammad I (Ibn al-Amar, Abenámar) to move the capital of his kingdom 
to the city of Granada and to declare himself a vassal of Castile.

___ Rulers of Seville have occupied the site of the Alcázar from the
time of the Romans. Here was built the great court of the Abbadids, 
which reached a peak of sophistication and exaggerated sensuality under
al-Mutadid, a ruler who enlarged the palace in order to house a harem
of eight hundred women. Later, under the Almohads, the complex was 
turned into a citadel, forming the heart of the town's fortifications.
Parts of the Almohad walls still survive today, but the present structure 
of the palace dates almost entirely from the Christian period. Seville
was a favoured residence of the Castilian kings for some four centuries
after the reconquest, most particularly of Pedro I the Cruel (1350-1369) 
who lived in and ruled from the Alcázar.

castle built in the XIII century at Antequera, near Málaga. Antequera 
fell to the Christians in 1410. Gunpowder is said to have been used 
for the first time in Spain on this occasion.

___ The Torre del Oro of Seville (Tower of Gold) owes its name to the
characteristic golden reflections produced by the glaze that coated
its twelve-sided exterior. It was built in the XIII century as a part
of the city walls, although it is physically separated from them. It
served as a surveillance point, as a defensive bulwark of the city's 
port, and as a prison. After the Discovery of America, the Torre del 
Oro was utilized to store the silver and gold arriving from the colonies.

__ The Cordobese philosopher Averroes (1126-1198), Ibn-Rushd in Arabic,
was a genius of encyclopedic scope. He spent a great part of his
fruitful life as a judge and as a physician. Yet he was known in the
West for being the grand commentator of the philosophy of Aristotle,
and his influence penetrated even the most conservative of Christian
thinkers in the Middle Ages. In fact, Averroes' work prefigured much
of the work of St. Thomas Aquinas.
