Légende

The Gate of Cordoba, Carmona, Spain, 2007. This gate was first built by the Romans; it is composed of two octagonal-shaped towers with additions made during the Muslim and Christian periods, including a Baroque central part with Tuscan columns on balusters; the upper balcony is topped by a triangular frontispiece. The nearby fortress which was located next to this gate, known as the Alcazar de la Reina, was destroyed by order of the Catholic Kings in 1478, as part of their policy to weaken the local nobility.
