The construction of this majestic building began in late 1510. By 1512 it was inhabited by the family of Diego Columbus, then Viceroy of India, the third Spanish governor and son of Admiral Christopher Columbus, discoverer of America. <\/P><br \/>\n<P>The Alc\u00e1zar de Col\u00f3n is a rectangular, two-level building. The main staircase is large and u-shaped. The building has two other staircases &#8211; one snail-shaped and another, smaller one is on the level where the re-creation of the Mar\u00eda de Toledo Chapel is found.<\/P><br \/>\n<P>This monument was built with coral stones from the quarries of Santa Barbara. The walls are about 85 centimeters thick and the building covers an area of 1,525 square meters.<\/P><br \/>\n<P>Currently the mission of the Alc\u00e1zar de Col\u00f3n Museum is research, conservation and to serve as a guide for Dominican and foreign visitors to further understand the history of colonialism in the Dominican Republic. <\/P><br \/>\n<P><STRONG>Photos:<\/STRONG><BR><IMG class=thinborderfloat1 border=0 alt=\"downlaod free\" src=\"\/portal\/noticias\/ev_tripadvisor1.jpg\"><BR><BR><IMG class=thinborderfloat1 border=0 alt=\"downlaod free\" src=\"\/portal\/noticias\/ev_tripadvisor2.jpg\"><BR><BR><IMG class=thinborderfloat1 border=0 alt=\"downlaod free\" src=\"\/portal\/noticias\/ev_tripadvisor3.jpg\"><BR><br \/>\n<P>Alc\u00e1zar de Col\u00f3n Museum<\/P><br \/>\n<P><\/P><!-- Arrow Navigator Skin Begin --><br \/>\n<STYLE><br \/>\n            \/* jssor slider arrow navigator skin 05 css *\/<br \/>\n            \/*<br \/>\n            .jssora05l              (normal)<br \/>\n            .jssora05r              (normal)<br \/>\n            .jssora05l:hover        (normal mouseover)<br \/>\n            .jssora05r:hover        (normal mouseover)<br \/>\n            .jssora05ldn            (mousedown)<br \/>\n            .jssora05rdn            (mousedown)<br \/>\n            *\/<br \/>\n            .jssora05l, .jssora05r, .jssora05ldn, .jssora05rdn<br \/>\n            {<br \/>\n            \tposition: absolute;<br \/>\n            \tcursor: pointer;<br \/>\n            \tdisplay: block;<br \/>\n                background: url(..\/img\/a17.png) no-repeat;<br \/>\n                overflow:hidden;<br \/>\n            }<br \/>\n            .jssora05l { background-position: -10px -40px;
