Boabdil, the last Muslim king, reluctantly handed over the keys to his beloved city to King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella in a moment captured by artists throughout history. One such depiction is "The Surrender of Granada, " painted in 1882 on canvas.

" This captivating tale delves into the complexities surrounding this pivotal figure and his lasting impact on Spanish history. Another significant event during this time was the taking of Loja by King Ferdinand. It symbolized the Catholic crown's relentless pursuit to reclaim Spain from Islamic rule.
