Torre de don Fadrique, Medieval tower in Santa Clara Convent, Seville, Spain.
The 65-meter-high stone and brick tower features a square base measuring 7.75 meters on each side, divided into three distinct levels with battlements.
Prince Fadrique, brother of King Alfonso X, constructed this tower in 1252 as part of his residence until his execution in 1277.
The structure combines Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements, displaying semicircular arches on the second floor and pointed arches on the third floor.
The tower stands within the Santa Clara cultural center complex, which operates under specific visiting hours determined by the Seville City Council.
A Latin inscription above the entrance documents the exact construction date and celebrates the architectural achievement of this thirteenth-century structure.
