OLD MOORISH CASTLE.
29
articles of different kinds, which are sold to travel-
lers as curiosities and mementos of the place.
The most remarkable edifice in Gibraltar is the
ancient Moorish tower or castle, built soon after
the arrival of Tarifa in Spain. It is at least 1100
years old. It is situated at the north end of the
town, higher up on the rock than any other import-
ant building, and is a conspicuous object from
almost any part of the harbor.
