The Alcazaba is an imposing 11th-century fortress situated on a hill in the center of Malaga. The name Alcazaba means ‘citadel’ and it was for King Badis of the Berber Taifa of Granada, using materials from the Roman Theater. From the walls of the fortress, visitors can enjoy sweeping views over Malaga, the sea and the surrounding area. The Alcazaba consists of an outer citadel with turrets and battlements, intended to defend the city. The inner citadel houses a Palace, which is built in the Moorish style.
