Alcázar of Toledo, Military fortress in Toledo, Spain.

The stone structure stands at the highest point of Toledo with four corner towers and rectangular walls overlooking the surrounding landscape.

Originally built on Roman foundations, the fortress underwent major renovations during the reign of Emperor Charles V in the sixteenth century.

The Army Museum displays Spanish military collections from the Middle Ages to modern times within the halls of the former fortress.

Guided tours operate Tuesday through Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM, with free admission for students and visitors under 18 years old.

The regional library of Castilla-La Mancha, housed within the Alcazar, maintains a collection of more than 300,000 volumes.
