Powder magazine tower. Forming part of the defensive line that was built along the coastal front of Algeciras, the remains of the tower popularly known as "Del Polvorín" or Torrealmirante still remain, near the Playa de la Concha. During the Civil War, this facility was used as a machine gun nest and observer station, and next to it there was a water pipe regularly visited by the people of Algeria.
Torre del Almirante is a tower located in Algeciras, Spain. It was declared Bien de Interés Cultural in 1985.

It was built between 1279 and 1285. In 1379, the Nasrid sultan Mamad V destroyed the city, the walls and blocked the port. Until the arrival of new settlers from Gibraltar, in 1704, Algeciras was uninhabited. The ruins are made up of a 100-m defensive wall, four late medieval towers and two smaller ones. The Archaeological Complex of the Medieval Walls is distributed over an area of 6,000 m². A walk runs from Calle Alfonso XI to Avenida Virgen del Carmen, and the Interpretation Centre of Andalusian Culture is next to the remains.
