Discover the fort-cum-palace of the Catholic kings on a 1-hour guided tour of Cordoba’s Alcazar.

Built on the remains of Moorish palace, the Alcazar has been witness to dozens of historical events of great importance. Follow in the footsteps of Christopher Columbus, who met Fernando and Isabel here in 1486. Learn about its time as the headquarters of the Spanish Inquisition.

Stroll through remarkable rooms, such as the Salón de los Mosaicos (Hall of Mosaics). See the crenellated towers, and the Patio Morisco baths with their Moorish motifs. Climb the tower for panoramic views of the gardens.

Then, take a stroll through the landscaped gardens to see features such as pools, fish ponds, fountains and orange trees.
