The Albolafia, also known as the Molino de la Albolafia in Spanish ('Mill of the Albolafia'), is a medieval noria (or waterwheel) along the Guadalquivir River in the historic center of Córdoba, Spain. It is one of several historic watermills of Cordoba and is located close to the Roman Bridge and to the Christian Alcazar. It is commonly believed to date from the Islamic era of the city, though its exact origins are uncertain.[1]
