Opis

Visit the Alcazaba in Almeria and immerse yourself in the history of the development of astronomy from the Classical, Arab, Renaissance, and Modern periods. Finish on a terrace with a guided astronomy session.
Visit the Alcazaba with a certified astronomy guide. Discover the importance of cultural collaboration in the development of astronomy.

Join a certified astronomy guide on a tour of the majestic Alcazaba of Almeria! Learn how cultural collaboration between the Greeks, Persians, Indians, and Arabs revolutionized medieval astronomy, the foundation of scientific progress to the present day.

Experience with us:

- Exclusive tour: Explore courtyards, cisterns, and city walls, with a highlight being the 11th-century sundial, direct evidence of solar time measurement in al-Andalus Almería.

- Astronomers and their contributions: Learn about Al-Khwarizmi (the father of the zij tables), Al-Sufi (star catalogs), Al-Battani (planetary precision), Ibn al-Zarqalluh (Al-Andalus astrolabes), and Al-Tusi (critique of Ptolemy in Maragha).

- Practice with an astrolabe: Use a replica of this al-Andalus instrument to measure celestial altitudes and hours. Learn about its strategic importance in navigation.

- The Moon and Ramadan: Experience how the munajjims (astronomers) observed the Moon throughout the year to determine the start of the holy month.

- Grand finale: On a terrace overlooking the Alcazaba, we will engage in stargazing using telescopes (the Sun at sunset or the Moon, stars, and planets, depending on the season), accompanied by a drink and a traditional tapa.
