What is an “alcazar” exactly? It means fortress palace. The term comes from the Arab words “el qasr.”
The origins of the Alcázar can be traced back to the 8th century when the Moors conquered Seville. They built a fortress on the remains of a Visigoth basilica. After this, Islam was the dominant force in Seville.
In the 12th century, the Moroccan Almohad caliphate began construction in earnest and the Alcázar became more established as a palace. It had the elaborate ornamentation of Islamic art with arabesques, calligraphy, and geometric patterns in plaster and tile.
The Alcázar is the oldest royal palace still in use today. The Spanish royal family uses the upper floors. And dignitaries and officials are regularly hosted. In 1987, it was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
