The Augustinian convent is one of the most important landmarks of Huécija in Andalusia, Spain. It consists of a baroque church and some remains of the Augustinian monastery which it formerly served.
The monastery was established in the 16th century with the aim of reaching out to the local morisco population. The church sustained damage in an earthquake in 1522 and an arson attack in 1568 during the Rebellion of the Alpujarras. It was rebuilt in the 18th century.
The monastery was closed in the 19th century as part of the desamortizacion, while the church remained in active use.
References:The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.
Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
