Discover the Casa de Pilatos, a gem of Renaissance and Mudéjar styles in Seville. This stunning palace combines elegant courtyards with marble fountains, exquisite Andalusian-inspired tiles and carved wooden ceilings that evoke the grandeur of Islamic architecture. Its horseshoe arches, walls adorned with plasterwork and scented gardens recall the beauty of ancient Andalusian palaces. Stroll through its majestic rooms and beautiful courtyard, reflecting the aristocratic splendor of Andalusia. If the Alcázar is not available, this will be the option we will take. An essential visit for art and history lovers!
Real Alcazar de Sevilla
This will be the priority palace to visit if there is capacity. The Alcázar de Sevilla is an authentic compendium of architectural styles that reflect the historical evolution of the city. Originating in Islamic times, its structure preserves the characteristic horseshoe arches and the distribution of courtyards, elements of Muslim design. The Mudéjar influence is evident in the intricate work of plasterwork and tiles, which fuses techniques and motifs of both Christian and Islamic tradition. In addition, certain spaces show the solidity and verticality of the Gothic style in their vaults and corridors, while the elegance and symmetry of the Renaissance is evident in the planning and decoration of some rooms. This guided tour focuses on analyzing and understanding how these architectural currents have been intertwined to create the uniqueness of the Alcázar.
