More information
Seville Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See, is one of the most impressive and emblematic monuments in the city of Seville, Spain. This majestic Gothic structure was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987 and is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world.
The cathedral is located in the heart of the city, in the Arenal district, and its imposing presence dominates the cityscape. Construction began in 1401 on the site of an old Almohad mosque and continued for several centuries, which explains the variety of architectural styles that can be seen in its structure.
One of the cathedral’s most prominent features is its famous bell tower, known as the Giralda. This impressive tower, standing 104 meters tall, was originally the minaret of the Almohad mosque and was later converted into a Christian bell tower. The ascent is a unique experience, as it has no stairs, but rather a gentle ramp that allows you to climb to the top without difficulty, from where you can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the city.
The interior of the cathedral is equally impressive, with its soaring naves, chapels adorned with masterpieces of painting and sculpture, and its magnificent main altarpiece, the work of the Flemish artist Pieter Dancart. It also houses the tomb of the famous navigator Christopher Columbus, whose remains rest in a funerary monument located inside the cathedral.
In addition to its artistic and historical value, Seville Cathedral is a place of worship and prayer for Catholic faithful, who come to pay homage to the Virgin Mary and the saints. During Holy Week, the cathedral becomes the epicenter of the processions and religious celebrations that take place in the city, attracting thousands of visitors and worshippers.
The cathedral and the Giralda are undoubtedly two of Seville’s most prized treasures, and a visit to them is essential for anyone wishing to discover and appreciate the rich cultural and artistic heritage of this magnificent city. Whether for their imposing architecture, historical significance, or religious importance, the cathedral and the Giralda will leave no visitor unmoved, captivating them with their beauty and magnificence.
