Torre de Roma, Fortified tower in Romilla, Spain
The Torre de Roma stands 14 meters tall with five floors, constructed using a strong mixture of gravel, soil, and limestone on a rectangular base.
Built during the Nasrid period in the 14th century, this defensive tower served as a strategic point connecting the Alhambra palace with Moclin Castle.
The tower displays traditional Arabic construction methods with indentations from wooden frames used to press mortar, forming solid protective walls.
The main entrance sits two meters above ground level on the eastern facade, incorporating defensive features against flooding and potential attacks.
The structure includes an underground water cistern beneath the ground floor, ensuring water supply during extended periods of occupation.
