聖安娜城堡
s/n Av. Roquetas de MarFortification from the late 16th century and 17TH century, declared BIC by UNESCO since 1985
A looming fortification with great curtain-like walls rising from the cliffs, the Alcazaba was founded in the mid-10th century and was one of the most powerful Moorish fortresses in Spain.It lacks the intricate decoration of Granada's Alhambra, but is nonetheless a compelling monument. Allow about 1½ hours to see everything. Pick up a guide leaflet in one of several languages at the kiosk, just inside the four-arch entrance gate.

Situated in the Tabernas Desert, an established location for the movie industry, Movie Projector Almeria Movie Location the film studios of Tabernas have grown into the wild west tourist attraction know as Mini Hollywood.
Mini Hollywood has three separate itineraries, Oasys Park, Fort Bravo and Western Leone, all are open for visitors and each offers a different wild west adventure for all the family with western shows among the many other attractions. Western Leone and Fort Bravo are still part time working film locations where as Oasys Park, the largest of the three, is now entirely given over to the theme park business.

desert landscape
Tabernas desert cinematic heritage
In the 1960s the landscapes of the desert of Tabernas developed into a sought after movie location, well known productions such as King of Kings (1960), Cleopatra (1963), and the winner of seven Oscars, Lawrence of Arabia (1962), all used the desert as a backdrop during filming, attracting big budget Hollywood directors such as Steven Spielberg who chose Almeria for scenes in his blockbuster movie Indian Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) starring Harrison Ford.
Sergio Leone, the director of the famous Spaghetti Westerns, starring Clint Eastwood, also capitalised on these unique landscapes, scenes from A Fist Full of Dollars (1964), For a Few Dollars More (1965), The Good The Bad and The Ugly (1966), and A Fistful of Dynamite (1972), were filmed in the western village movie sets as well as the surrounding desert and other well suited spots throughout the remarkable terrains of the province.Stunning landscape backdrop on the Exodus movie set
More recently, in 2012, the BBC chose Tabernas to shoot an episode for the next season of the cult series Doctor Who.
Exodus movie set in Sierra Alhamilla AlmeriaIn October of 2013 the landscapes of Almeria were once again in the headlines as filming began for the Ridley Scott movie Exodus - Gods and Kings, the texture and colour of the terrain, and its resemblance to Egypt, being the attraction for the director and his team for some of their movie scenes. This anticipated epic saw the actors Christian Bale (Moses), Aaron Paul (Joshua) and Joel Edgerton (the Egyptian Pharaoh Rhamses) spending time in the province. The film is a loose interpretation of the biblical exodus from Egypt where daring leader Moses rises up against the Egyptian Pharaoh Ramses, setting the Hebrew slaves on a mammoth journey of escape and endurance as they face the ghastly succession of deadly plagues.
The actual location used for the filming, El Chorrillo de Pechina, is in the foothills of Sierra Alhamilla on the Tabernas desert outskirts.
Exodus movie set in Sierra Alhamilla AlmeriaI visited the movie location not long after the filming had finished, walked through the village set and entered some of the houses, it was indeed a surreal experience, with the remote setting and mountainous backdrop it felt more like I could have been there in biblical times myself.
El Chorrillo de Pechina - Sierra Alhamilla is found by taking the A-92 at junction 387 and following the sign for Sierra Alhamilla along the ALP-816 towards the Baños de Alhamilla.
October 2015 saw further filming in this location, by the American fantasy drama series Game of Thrones.
