About This Book
The work provides a detailed architectural and historical account of a medieval palace outside Zaragoza, outlining its general plan, diverse construction phases, and defensive features. It offers close descriptions of the mosque, the Sala de Santa Isabel, inscriptions and heraldic emblems, and discusses water supply, orchards and ancillary spaces. The author compiles documentary evidence and older manuscripts to trace ownership, repairs, royal ceremonies, imprisonments, the establishment of the Inquisition at the site, and notable visits by the crown. An appendix gathers archival documents, genealogies and fiscal records. The final chapters propose measures for conservation, restoration and enhanced public attention to the monuments.
