This Palatine city was ordered to be built by the first Caliph of al-Andalus Abderraman III in the year 936 and completed 15 years later by his son, the second Caliph, Alhaken II. Great people lived there, such as the Jewish doctor Hasday Ibn Shaprut, the doctor Albucasis and the intellectual Lubna.
