palau de l'almudaina2
DESCRIPTION
The palace has a rectangular layout and is enclosed by walls which are flanked by square towers. Of these towers, the Torre de l´homenatge (Tower of Homage) stands out; this tower is also known as The Angel due to the 14th century copper sculpture of the Archangel Gabriel, who was the old patron saint of the city. Next to the street la Costa de la Seu there is the Torre dels Caps (Tower of the Heads), which is so called due to the fact that this is where the heads of executed prisoners were displayed. The current tower is a copy of Perpignan´s small castle. The façade looking out to sea has lost some of its defensive structure, with a series of arches and windows at different levels.TRANSCRIPT

Palatul regal Almudaina (care în arabă înseamnă citadelă) a fost dintotdeauna sediu al puterii
Edificiu de origine romană, a fost remodelat de guvernatorii musulmani (care au stăpânit insula de la începutul secolului X până 1229 când a fost cucerită de Jaume I), şi apoi modificat şi mărit de regele Jaume II
