Islamic district of Siyasa (Cieza, Murcia)3D Model
The ancient Islamic city of Siyasa or Medina Siyâsa is located in Cieza (Murcia, Spain). It is one of the best preserved medieval sites from the Islamic period in Europe. The walls of some buildings still remain more than two meters high and in the excavations numerous remains of paintings and plaster arches were found. Some of these arches have been completely restored in the neighboring Siyâsa Museum.
Although it is calculated that the city must have had around 700 houses, approximately 19 that form a small neighborhood have currently been excavated and conditioned for the visit. These houses would belong to the wealthy class of the city since many of them had viewpoints with beautiful views of the valley.
