At the highest point in the city looms the foreboding Alcázar. Rebuilt under Franco after the Civil War, it has reopened as a vast military museum. The most macabre sight is the recreation of Moscardó's office wrecked with bullet holes. Other highlights include the monumental central patio decorated with Habsburg coats of arms, and archaeological remains from Moorish times.
