Introduction
The Alcázar of Toledo is a square stone fortress on a cliff above the Tagus, where Roman, Visigothic and Arab layers pile up, and which later bore the grim memory of a Civil War siege. Now a military museum, its massive walls and central court still tell of power and endurance in this 'city of three cultures'.
