Alconchel Castle is built in the site of Roman, Visigoth and Moorish fortifications. Today oldest parts date from the 12th century, when Alconchel was reoccupied by kings of Portuguese and León. The castle was altered in the late 14th century and 16th century for better protection against gunpowder weapons. Numerous battles between the kingdoms of Spain and Portugal took place here.

Edfu was one of several temples built during the Ptolemaic Kingdom, including the Dendera Temple complex, Esna, the Temple of Kom Ombo, and Philae. Its size reflects the relative prosperity of the time. The present temple initially consisted of a pillared hall, two transverse halls, and a barque sanctuary surrounded by chapels. The building was started during the reign of Ptolemy III Euergetes and completed in 57 BC under Ptolemy XII Auletes. It was built on the site of an earlier, smaller temple also dedicated to Horus, although the previous structure was oriented east–west rather than north–south as in the present site.
