“Mudejar” (Muslims who stayed in the Iberian Peninsula after the Christian Reconquest) castle bought by archaeologist George Bonsor Saint-Martin, in 1902, with the purpose of setting it up as residence and Museum. The architectural elements, typical of the neo-Islamic style preferred by Romantic travelers, merge with an eclectic Andalusian landscaping. The interior conserves the expository discourse designed by the owner. It includes archaeological and ethnographic collections, as well as a vast documentary and photographic collection.
