Embrace Seville’s Artistic Legacy
Prepare to be mesmerized as you immerse yourself in centuries of rich cultural history with the Salvador Church, Casa Pilatos & Metropol Tour. Your journey begins at the Salvador Church, a former mosque, where the echoes of the past come alive with sculptures from Holy Week processions, vividly showcasing Seville's deep-rooted religious traditions. A professional guide escorts you through this journey, unraveling stories from the bygone eras. Navigate through the heart of Arabic Seville and be introduced to the city’s vibrant social scene, with several shopping opportunities for traditional outfits for local festivals like The April Fair or The Rocio Pilgrimage.
From Mudejar Palace to Modern Marvels
The tour then steers you to Casa Pilatos, a beautiful blend of Mudejar and Italian Renaissance influences, housing an impressive tile collection. The house holds a quirky tale of its own – it's named "Pilate's House" after the first Marquis of Tarifa, who calculated the distance from his house to the Station of the Cross in Jerusalem to be exactly 1321 steps; the same as a traditional Via Dolorosa or 'Way of Sorrows'. The tour concludes with a view of the contemporary architectural masterpiece – Las Setas housed within the Metropol Building, though this spectacle is not included in the ticket. Choose between English, French, Spanish, and Italian as this tour caters to a diverse audience. The tickets cover entries to Salvador Church and the ground floor of Casa Pilatos, along with a guided tour, making this a comprehensive journey through Seville's artistic timeline.
