      | The Torre de Oro, in fact houses a
        naval museum.  Once upon a time it was covered in gold tiles. 
        Hence the name. There is a large Alcazar in Sevilla of Moorish design
        that allegedly is an architectural rival for Alhambra.  I say
        allegedly because it was closed on Mondays... so, alas, I have no
        photos.  But the cathedral (in the background of the photo above)is
        extraordinary and makes up for the castle being closed if your timing is
        as splendid as mine. |

      | La Torre del Oro (Golden tower) is not a castle. It is
        just a tower. Right now it is a Museum. I recommend anyone going to
        Seville to visit this famous tower. But it does not belong in the category of "castles". |
