of <a href="/wiki/Algeciras" title="Algeciras">Algeciras</a>, <a href="/wiki/Spain" title="Spain">Spain</a>. It was situated roughly 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) from the coast on a hill some 100 metres (330 ft) above sea level in the area which is now covered by the city's northern suburbs. The tower was demolished by the Spaniards during the <a href="/wiki/Spanish%E2%80%93American_War" title="Spanish–American War">Spanish–American War</a> as they thought the Americans might use it as a base of their own. The ruins of the tower are within military limits and cannot be approached without a formal permit.<sup id="cite_ref-Tower_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Tower-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Torre_de_los_Adalides&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The tower was one of a series of <a href="/wiki/Watchtower" title="Watchtower">watchtowers</a> built during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries to monitor the Strait of Gibraltar and <a href="/wiki/Algeciras_Bay" class="mw-redirect" title="Algeciras Bay">Algeciras Bay</a>.
