The Alhambra, literally “the red one” is a palace and fortress complex of the Moorish rulers of Granada in southern Spain. It was given this name because of the color of the red clay of the surroundings of which the fort is made. The fortress was constructed during the mid 14th century, occupying a hilly terrace on the southeastern border of the city of Granada. 
It was the residence of the Muslim rulers of Granada and their court, today it is one of Spain´s major tourist attractions which shoes the country´s most famous Islamic architecture.
It is a place where artists and intellectuals had taken refuge as Christian Spain won victories over Al Andalus.
