Gain Priority Access to the Iconic Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba
Visit the most important monuments of Córdoba during this 3-hour guided tour to three different UNESCO World Heritage Sites. After meeting your English or Spanish-speaking guide, you will first visit the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba. Built in the 8th century, it is the world’s third-largest mosque and is considered to be one of the greatest representations of Moorish architecture. Use your priority entrance tickets and gain direct entry to the monument. Your guide will explain the fascinating history of the mosque to you, which was turned into a cathedral in 1236 and is, therefore, is a unique representation of both Muslim and Christian cultures. Admire the astonishing arches inside the mosque, supported by 856 granite and marble pillars, and see the shell-shaped prayer niche as well as the courtyard of the orange trees.
See the Synagogue, the Maimonides Statue, and the El Zoco Market in the Jewish Quarter
Continue on to the Jewish Quarter, a UNESCO World Heritage Site close to the Mosque-Cathedral. See the Synagogue that stands at the center of the neighborhood and walk by the bronze statue of Maimonides, a Jewish philosopher, and astronomer who was born in Córdoba. Enjoy a stroll through the picturesque Andalusian streets and visit an Arabic Market where artisans sell their handmade crafts.
End Your Tour at the Alcázar of Christian Kings
Explore the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos, or the “Alcázar of the Christian Kings,” which functioned as a primary residence for Catholic monarchs. Visit exquisitely decorated rooms such as the famous Hall of Mosaics, admire the royal baths with their Moorish motifs, and stroll through the vast gardens. Learn about the historical significance of the fortress, where Isabella I of Castile and Fernando II of Aragon met Christopher Columbus before sponsoring his first voyage to the Americas in 1492. With a visit to the Alcázar, the Jewish Quarter, and the Mosque-Cathedral, this guided tour is the perfect opportunity to see first-hand how a combination of Christian, Muslim, and Jewish cultures have shaped the city of Córdoba.
