Torre del Oro
Torre del Oro: We will begin our tour at this iconic monument located on the banks of the Guadalquivir River. Built in the 13th century as a watchtower, the Torre del Oro is a key piece of Seville’s defensive history. Its name comes from the golden shine that its walls reflected, and inside it houses a naval museum that documents the city’s rich maritime past.
Giralda
Giralda: This bell tower, one of Seville’s undeniable symbols, is a splendid example of the transition between Islamic and Christian architecture. Originally built as the minaret of the Almohad mosque, the Giralda offers an unparalleled panoramic view of Seville from its 97.5 meters of height, accessible via a series of ramps that can be walked up.
Puerta del Perdón
Puerta del Perdón: Located in the Patio de los Naranjos of Seville Cathedral, the Puerta del Perdón is an impressive entrance adorned with elaborate Moorish details. It is one of the few remnants of the old Almohad mosque that preceded the current Cathedral. Passing through this gate is to step back in time and feel medieval Seville.
Plaza del Triunfo
Plaza del Triunfo: This charming public space is surrounded by some of Seville’s most significant buildings. In the center stands the monument to the Immaculate Conception, commemorating the declaration of the dogma in 1854. From this plaza, our guides will introduce you to the main historical and architectural landmarks surrounding this emblematic place.
Seville City Hall
Seville City Hall: Continuing the tour, we will visit the magnificent Seville City Hall, a jewel of Spanish Renaissance. Its Plateresque façade, rich in sculptural and symbolic details, highlights the splendor and historical importance of this institution. Inside, you will discover rooms filled with art and history where municipal affairs have been handled for centuries.
Old Royal Tobacco Factory of Seville
Old Royal Tobacco Factory of Seville: Now home to the University of Seville, this impressive 18th-century building is one of the most significant examples of industrial architecture in the city. Within these walls, the story of Bizet’s famous ‘Carmen’ was woven, along with many other stories that our guides will detail.
Plaza de España
Plaza de España: We will conclude our tour at the majestic Plaza de España, built for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929. This magnificent example of Andalusian Regionalist architecture, with its semi-circular shape and navigable canal, is a tribute to the history and culture of Spain. The colorful tiles representing the Spanish provinces offer a vibrant reminder of the country’s diversity.
