Review:
The Castle of the Christian Monarchs was built by King Alfonso of Castile in 1328. It has an austere exterior. There are four towers, two of which are square, one is round and the other octagonal. Inside the walls are magnificent gardens and patios. Below the main hall, also known as the Hall of Mosaics are what remains of the royal baths. Columbus met with the monarch in the castle and Napoleon garrisoned his troops there. It has been declared a Cultural Interest Site and is part of the historical center of Cordoba which has been declared a World Heritage Site.
Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos, Plaza Campo Santo De Los Mártires S/N. 14004 Córdoba
