Currently it looks like some ruins, but in Muslim times the garrison houses were here, where the soldiers who protected the Alhambra lived. In these ruins you can see the typical layout of a Muslim house: entrance, small patio, rooms around it and a latrine. Among all these houses, it stands out, due to its greater size, almost three times that of the others and with a pool in its center, which must have been that of the head of the garrison.
