This fortified behemoth of a basilica was designed in the 16th century with a dual role: as a place of worship, but also to protect the citizens when pirates attacked the city of Almeria after the Reconquest. Built in 1524, after an earthquake destroyed the previous structure, the cathedral is constructed, like so many churches in Spain, on the site of a mosque.
Andalucían church architecture is a rich tapestry of Roman, Moorish, Gothic, and Baroque influences. Beyond the main altar, these structures contain many specialized sections and decorative features.
This church is called a colegiata, or school, because its original purpose was to teach Christianity to the Moors after the conquest in 1492. This mission was first installed in the Great Mosque of the Albaicin.
El Albaicín is the old Moorish quarter of the city. It's located on a hill facing the Alhambra and there are dramatic views of this area from the palace's famous rose gardens.

The name Alhambra comes from an Arabic root which means "red or crimson castle", perhaps due to the hue of the towers and walls that surround the entire hill of La Sabica which by starlight is silver but by sunlight is transformed into gold.

From the cities to the sierras, the rolling inland plains to its long and varied coastline, Andalucía has a wealth of architecture.
