| Beschreibung: | The Court of the Lions in the Alhambra is the zenith of Nasrid architecture. lts famous fountain is perhaps its most distinctive feature due to its decorative richness and symbolism. lt was constructed by order of Muhammad V between 1362 and 1391. The restoration of the Fountain of the Lions was a large-scale project executed in various stages, beginning with the restoration of Lion number 4 in 2002. Work continued with the restorat1on of the remaining lions and the basin of the fountain between 2007 and 2010. ln 2009 a project was drafted for the renovation of the water system. The aim was to restore the courtyard's various fountains to full working order and perform conservation work in situ. Work was completed with the paving of the courtyard with Macael white marble in 2012. The objective was to ensure historical authenticity by returning to the original paved flooring and improve public access and enjoyment. | |

| Beschreibung: | Jury Citation: "The award recognizes the sophisticated restoration of this very emblematic monument. The long process brought with it major difficulties. The restoration of the lions and the fountain, the renovation of the whole complicated water system and especially the decision, after serious historical researches, as to what kind of pavement should replace the gardens built in the beginning of 19th century, all entailed challenging conservation issues. But the result, restoring this beautiful court, located at the heart of the most important Nasrid palace, is a triumph. The Jury valued the quality of the research and methodology, and welcomed the result that allows public to access the court." | |
