Towers and walls surround the Alhambra of Granada, solid walls such as those of the Tower of the Captain, with perhaps only a window or two were designed to keep the inhabitants safe.

There are in excess of 10 towers dotted around the walls of the great Alhambra in the city of Granada. Names such as Tower of the Captain, Tower of the Ladies, and Tower of the Spikes give a brief insight into their uses in days past.
