Torre del Oro of Seville   
Torre del Oro, Sevilla
How to get there

The Torre del Oro is located on the Paseo de Colón, next to the river Guadalquivir.  It was built by the Almohad in 1221, as a defense.  The body that crowns the circular tower was added later in 1760.
 
The tower also served as prison during the Middle Ages and a safe venue for saving precious metals brought in periodically by the Indian fleet.
 
It is currently a Naval Museum containing prints, nautical charts, models, navigational instruments and ancient and historical documents.  It paints a picture of the naval history of Seville, the importance of their river and the footprint of the illustrious marine history.
