True story
Manufactured Fear (08/02/2018)
The Mussa Tower looks majestic when you arrive, but I wish I had taken the photos not through a fence. In fact, I would like to be able to climb to the top and take pictures of its interior and the views. The little I saw on my visit was an inaccessible 4m high door (in addition, sneaking in will be illegal (I suppose)) but I don't know what to do to request to go up to document the site. (I am an architectural and landscape photographer and I would like to be able to visit it to take photos from that privileged place)

The Muza tower, located on the outskirts of Benifayó (Province of Valencia, Spain) next to the road from Benifayó to Catadau, is a construction of Islamic architecture built in the 12th century, renovated in the 14th century.nnBuilt with stone and lime mortar, it still conserves internally arcades corresponding to the demolished plants, as well as circular holes, which seems to show that it would be a dove-tower from the Islamic era.nnThe use as part of the defensive belt of the city of Valencia may be that it dates from the Christian era.nnIt is a quadrangle prismatic tower of about 10.2 meters side. It consists of a basement of about 3 meters high, and with a thickness in the walls of 1.20 meters, made with irregular rigging with the stone wall technique. On this basement is the entrance door, which is protected by a window located on the first floor. It has two other floors with four windows each. The floors would be made of wood, although they are not preserved, the traces of the support on the joist walls are still visible. In the auction some battlements are conserved. A wall with three arches is preserved inside, one per floor, which divides the tower floor into two.
