Description

Published by
Gibalbín Tower, located in the city of Jerez de la Frontera, bears witness to Andalusia's rich defensive heritage. An Islamic construction, the building has immense historical value. Its location in a rural setting invites you to explore the region's history while enjoying nature. The tower was built during the days of al-Andalus and played a strategic surveillance and communication role within the defensive network of the Cadiz countryside. With a square plan and built with materials such as rammed earth and stone, the tower reflects the building techniques of the Islamic period. Although it has now fallen into ruin, the remains provide a glimpse of its former strength.
