Alcázar
An alcázar () is a type of Moorish castle or palace in Spain and Portugal built during Muslim rule, mostly between the 8th and 15th centuries. Many cities in Spain have an ''alcázar''. Palaces built in the Moorish style after the expulsion of the Moors from Spain are often referred to as ''alcazars'' as well.
==Terminology==
The Spanish word ''alcázar'' () derives from the Arabic word القصر (trans. ''al-qasr'') meaning "fort, castle or palace". This Arabic word is possibly in turn derived from the Latin word ''castrum'', meaning an army camp or fort.. Similar words exist in Galician (''alcázar'', ), Portuguese (''alcácer'', ), and Catalan (''alcàsser'', ).
Spain also has Moorish citadels known as alcazabas. However, not all castles in Spain are called ''alcázar'': the majority are called ''castillo''. Nor was every alcazar or alcazaba in Iberia built by the Moors: many castles with these names were built after the Moors had withdrawn from the Iberian Peninsula.
