The Alcazaba of Antequera is a prominent Moorish fortress located in the town of Antequera, Spain. Dating back to the 14th century, it was built during the Nasrid period to serve as a defensive stronghold. The Alcazaba features impressive fortifications, including massive walls and watchtowers, most notably the Torre del Homenaje, which offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. The fortress played a crucial role in the Reconquista, eventually falling to Christian forces in the late 15th century.
