Villa Giacomina, 19th century villa in Malladeta Hill, Villajoyosa, Spain
Villa Giacomina features a square layout with a central courtyard, water storage area, and architectural elements reflecting Arabian and Gothic styles.
The building suffered damage when soldiers from the Italian Littorio Division occupied it during the Spanish Civil War, leading to its gradual deterioration.
The architectural design incorporates influences from Islamic, Christian, and Jewish traditions, manifesting in its neo-Islamic and Andalusian palace-inspired features.
The villa grounds remain accessible without charge throughout the day, though visitors cannot enter the interior sections of the structure.
Adjacent to Villa Giacomina stands the Malladeta tower, which served as the private library and office for psychiatrist José María Esquerdo.
