It's impossible not to see it: located on the highest hill in Toledo, it's a lonely rectangular mass
dominating the horizon. ,Abaderramán III built a fortress here, the ,
al-qasar. This strategic place had already been used before by Romans and since then it had ,
always been linked to power. ,The current building was ordered to be built by Emperor Carlos V. ,It suffered several wars, fires, bombings... It ,
currently houses the Army Museum.
