    Alcazar of Segovia

    The Alcázar de Segovia, with its silhouette of a tale castle, is one of the most emblematic monuments in Spain. Its interior offers a tour of history: the Throne Room and the Kings Room, decorated with impressive Mudéjar cofferings and portraits of monarchs; the Arms Room, which preserves armor and military pieces; and the Chapel, of great Gothic sobriety. The Alcazar was a royal palace, fortress and prison, and still retains that air of medieval grandeur.

The cloister, of medieval origin, offers a gathering space full of history. Climbing the tower allows you to enjoy a spectacular panorama of the city and its surroundings. An essential place to understand the greatness of Segovia.
