Murallas de la ciudad de Elche

Monuments

Although most of the walls that formed the Muslim precinct have disappeared, some remains scattered throughout the city can still be traced. On the one hand, the towers that have become part of the current urban fabric, some somewhat camouflaged, such as the Council, Santa Bárbara, Santa Lucía or Ressemblanch, which best retains its original traces. In order to take a complete impression of the old wall it will be necessary to look for the "remnants" of the same one in different locations, like the lime mortar tapial at the confluence of Fatxo and Diagonal streets; the section integrated in the current building of the Town Hall and that looks at the Plaça de Baix or the existing profile, of considerable dimensions, in the Cases de la Mare de Deu.
