The monumental ensemble in the center of Seville, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, comprises three monuments. The first one is the Cathedral of Santa María de la Sede, the gothic temple with the largest surface in the world and symbol of the city. Built on the site of the former Great Mosque of the 12th century, it preserves its old minaret—the current Giralda—and the Patio de los Naranjos (Orange Trees Courtyard). At the panoramic bar La Terraza del EME, located facing the Cathedral, you can enjoy one of the best views of the city while sipping a cocktail. Calle Alemanes, 27.
Very close to the Cathedral is the Royal Alcázar, one of the world oldest palaces still in use, renowned for its unique blend of Islamic, Mudéjar, and Renaissance art. Its lush gardens, courtyards, and halls tell centuries of royal history. Also choosen as "Game of Thrones" filming location, it's one of Spain's most visited monuments.
Next to the Alcázar is the third UNESCO World Heritage Site, the General Archive of the Indies, conceived by Spanish King Charles III in the 18th century to centralize in one place the documentation relating to the administration of Spain's overseas territories, of enormous historical value.
Built in the 13th century, the Torre del Oro (Tower of Gold) formed part of the defensive wall that surrounded the city and protected it from ships entering via the Guadalquivir River. Over the centuries, it served as a chapel, a gunpowder store, and a prison. Declared a historical-artistic monument, it now houses the Maritime Museum.
