The Alcázar of Segovia (literally Segovia Castle) is a stone fortification located in the old city of Segovia Spain. Rising out on a rocky crag above the confluence of the rivers Eresma and Clamores near the Guadarrama mountains it is one of the most distinctive castle-palaces in Spain by virtue of its shape – like the bow of a ship. The Alcázar was originally built as a fortress but has served as a royal palace a state prison a Royal Artillery College and a military academy since then.
