View of the Patio de las Munecas, or Courtyard of the Dolls, in the Mudejar Palace, or Palacio del Rey Don Pedro, built by Pedro I of Castile, 1334-1369, in 1364, in the Real Alcazar, a Moorish royal palace in Seville, Andalusia, Spain. The Patio de las Munecas was a private space named after the dolls' faces in the arches. The mezzanine and top gallery were added for Queen Isabel II in the 19th century, with plasterwork from the Alhambra in Granada. The Alcazar was first founded as a fort in 913, then developed as a palace in the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries and used by both Muslim and Christian rulers. The Alcazar is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
