Today: Cuarto Real de Santo Domingo, Granada

Place: Ġarnāṭa (Granada)
Kind: Palace
Built: c. 1273 to 1302
What remains: Standing

A qubba, the reception hall of the Naṣrid royal family, raised on a tower of the wall of the potters' quarter. Its date is disputed: the Spanish article calls it an Almohad palace, but its own text and the English one attribute it to Muḥammad II (1273 to 1302), and the wooden ceiling has been dated to after 1283. It keeps the square hall with tiled dados, carved stucco and a wooden ceiling.
