The Alhambra suffers slight damage, especially in the Alcazaba, but not structural
After being closed since Tuesday afternoon, the monumental complex has been reopened this Wednesday with all its usual route except the Alcazaba Pass. In addition, to ensure the safety of visitors, the routes through the Nazarene Palaces and the Generalife have been adapted.
The seismic series of more than fifty earthquakes recorded this week in Granada has caused minor damage to the Alhambra, especially to the mints and other elements, and especially to the Alcazaba.
The First Vice-President and Adviser for the Presidency, Health and Emergencies of the Junta de Andalucía , Antonio Sanz, explains that at least in the first visual inspection there has been no evidence of structural damage or risk of collapse, but that damage has been observed in non-structural elements that do not compromise the monument.
In the Nazarene Palaces, specifically in the Throne Hall, ornamental elements and plaster ornaments have collapsed as a result of earthquakes.
Thus, after being closed since Tuesday afternoon, the monumental complex has been reopened this Wednesday with all its usual itinerary except the Alcazaba Pass. In addition, to ensure the safety of visitors, the routes through the Nazarene Palaces and the Generalife have been adapted.
