Spain, Alcázar Castle of Segovia
This oldest Spanish fortress, which is almost 900 years old, is located in the city of Segovia. The city itself has been around for over two thousand years and is known for its fortress walls, Romanesque churches and Gothic-style cathedral. In the historic part of Segovia, the Alcázar sits on a rock, under which two rivers merge. This palace is rightly considered one of the most recognizable and most beautiful palaces in Spain.
During the Middle Ages the Alcázar fulfilled two functions: protecting the Kingdom of Castile from enemy attacks and being one of the favorite residences of the Spanish kings.
Today tourists can see eleven rooms of the famous palace of Alcázar, each with its own unique exhibits.
And if you look closely, the castle palace may remind someone of the image of the evil queen's castle from the Disney cartoon about Snow White. It was the Alcázar in Segovia that inspired the Disney artists and became the prototype of this cartoon palace.
