Take a tour of The Alcázar of Toledo in Toledo, Spain – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
The Alcazar of Toledo dates back to the third century.
It overlooks all of Toledo from the city's highest point.
This stone fortress was a key location in the Spanish Civil War.
Destroyed by artillery, the structure has since been restored.
Inactive since 1936, the stronghold's turrets still seem a bit imposing.
The Alcazar and neighboring Cathedral of Toledo dominate the skyline.
Once a symbol of Franco, the Alcazar now houses a library and army museum.
