Been there a few times now, Gordon. Once with my girlfriend in a volient thunderstorm and a good lunch but no photos! And a few photos from this and 2 other visits. Many thanks!

An excellent and interesting overview Andy.
Happy Sunday

Happy sunday evening!

Walls of Moorish origin (11th century), restored in the 15th century…
A fine place to walk by the river.

I should have made that clear, Isabel. I did take a photo of the official 'notes' but I didn't copy them as they seemed incomplete. i.e. no mention of the Moors!
I'll soon post a shot of the castle next to the church and there the two styles can be seen, even if the buildings all have a mix of styles, the Moors being by far the superior architects of the era!

Marvelous capture!

Brilliant photo here Andy;. I do like the ruins left behind. Being so far south in Spain, it's probably built by the Moors.

Actually it's dead central in Spain and to the north of the capital Madrid. But yes, Moorish architecture dominated most of Spain for quite some time! Thank you, Jenny!

It's interesting how the provinces had the battles over territories, similar to elsewhere in Europe.
Wonderful battlements, and composition leading through.

Thank you, Gillian!
The main battle was the centuries long but relentless recapturing of all of Spain by the Christians, after the domination by the Islamic Moors from 732. The battle I mention was in the 19th century, long after the Moors had ben pushed right back.

I just love that old stonework! There is nothing like that over here. What a great view you have from there!
