About the Alcázar of Toledo
The Alcázar of Toledo is a stone fortification crowning the highest part of the city of Toledo, in Spain. The large quadrangular building is 60 meters on each side, with four large towers that are 60 meters high, each capped with the typical Madrid spire. The name comes from the Arabic al-qasr, meaning "the castle", which ultimately derives from the Latin castrum.
In the 3rd century the site was a Roman palace, and it became a fortress in the 10th century, in the reign of the Cordoba Caliph Abd ar-Rahman III. In 1521, Charles I received Hernán Cortés at the Alcázar, after Cortés had conquered the Aztecs. A restoration took place in the 1540s under Charles I and under his son, Philip II of Spain.
Republican forces besieged the Alcázar in the Spanish Civil War, and Colonel José Moscardó Ituarte defended the building against them. The structure became a symbol of Spanish Nationalism. The siege left the building severely damaged, and most of it was rebuilt between 1939 and 1957. The rebuilt Alcázar houses the Mancha Regional Library and the Museum of the Army.

- Rows of tiny windows
- The long facades carry regular rows of small window recesses. Layers of 0.12–0.16 mm keep them crisp, and a bigger print size makes them easier to see.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
