The Taifa of Albarracín was a small independent Muslim kingdom that flourished in the 11th century. Visitors can trace its influence through the town's winding streets, defensive walls, and the Alcázar fortress. The distinctive pink-hued stone buildings and the layout of the old town reflect the Islamic period. Walking tours often highlight the taifa's role in regional politics and its eventual conquest by Christian forces.
Don't miss
- Visit the Alcázar, the former seat of the taifa's rulers
- Walk the restored section of the 11th-century city walls
- See the Torre del Andador, a watchtower from the Islamic era
