nos va lamiendo el corazón...
¡Torres de Segovia,
cigüeñas al sol!"

In contrast to the hinterland with the great mountain regions Sierra Nevada, the beaches in Andalusia are not among the most beautiful in Spain. The sand is grey, mixed with fine and grainy pebbles. Therefore I decided to fotograph the beach only in the late twilight:).

DSC04946. Castillo Templario de Ponferrada. Declarado Monumento Nacional de Interés Histórico y Artístico in 1924, el castillo es el resultado de una larga serie de ampliaciones, reformas y adiciones que van desde el primero llevado a cabo cerca de la planta cuadrada a principios del siglo 12, hasta las últimas zonas construidas a finales de los siglos 15 y principios de los 16. Tan pronto como Ponferrada pasó a depender de la Orden del Temple en 1178, por el regalo de los Reyes de León, los caballeros templarios encontraron una pequeña fortaleza que en un principio actuó como un asentamiento celta. Los caballeros reforzaron y reconstruyeron el recinto amurallado con el fin de proteger y guardar el camino de los peregrinos de Santiago y defender la entrada a la zona noroeste de la península. El castillo alberga ahora la exposición permanente "Templum Libri" en libros y facsímiles. Esta es una de las mejores colecciones del mundo de su tipo.
Declared a National Monument of Historic and Artistic Interest in1924, the Castle is the result of a long series of enlargements, refurbishments and additions ranging from the first one carried out near the square ground plan in the early 12th century, up to the last areas built in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. As soon as Ponferrada became dependent on the Order of the Temple in 1178, by gift of the Kings of León, the Templar knights found a small fortress that originally acted as a Celtic settlement. The knights reinforced and rebuilt the walled enclosure in order to protect and guard the Way of St. Jame’s pilgrims ad defend the entrance to the Northwest area of the peninsula. The rehabilitates palace suites host now the permanent exhibition “Templum Libri” on books and facsimiles, graphic cart and authors collections. This is one of the world’s best collections of its kind.
