Royal Alcazar City Tour
Explore the Oldest Royal Palace of Europe
Seville Royal Alcázar Tour
Mon - Tue - Wed - Thu - Fri - Sat - Sun (Approximately 1h 30 min.)
The Royal Alcázar of Seville, declared a World Heritage Site in 1987, along with the Archive of the Indies and the Cathedral of Seville, is one of those places to keep in memory and in the retina, next to the stories – imaginary or not – that have been created in them, as in the series “Game of Thrones“, points such as the Prince’s Garden, the Courtyard of the Maidens, the Hall of the Admiral, the Royal Room or the Courtyard of the Monteria.
The origins of the Royal Alcazar of Seville date from the High Middle Ages, although some areas of Islamic art have been preserved, which are impressive for their delicacy. In any case, the Mudejar and Gothic styles predominate.
Later, Renaissance and Baroque elements were added. It was in the 14th century that King Pedro I – King Don Pedro – ordered the demolition of the three Almohad palace buildings in order to build a Mudejar-style palace attached to the Gothic style of Alfonso X, the Casa Real. A palace that already amazed King Ferdinand III “El Santo” and is one of the oldest in Europe.
Over the centuries, it has been the residence of the members of the Spanish royal family in Seville. Today it is still exclusively for royal use, except for tourist visits.
Accompanied by a guide, we will discover all the secrets and legends of the architectural complex and its lush gardens. We will walk through the different halls, courtyards and rooms of this impressive royal palace and discover some of its most beautiful corners, such as the famous Baths of María Padilla or the Pond of Mercury.
Corners full of secrets and legends that will be explained during the tour, which will end in the gardens of the Royal Alcazar to let the participants enjoy all their charms.
