El Alcázar was a Spanish far-right newspaper founded in 1936 (Davies, 251). The paper was founded as the principal nationalist mouthpiece during the Siege of the Alcázar in homage to the defenders of the Alcázar of Toledo (from text quoted in González, 424). The paper closed in 1988 as a result of poor sales (Ross, 152). Antonio Izquierdo served as the paper's last editor. By the end of the paper's run, circulation was primarily among Francoist veterans (from text quoted in González, 424).
