Guided Tour Mosque and Medina Azahara

Visit Medina Azahara with historians and archaeologists who will take you back to the greatest splendour of Al-Andalus.

Finally, get to know the Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba in depth, with the help of historians, who will take you to the heart of Al-Andalus by visiting its most important and representative monument.

Guided tour dedicated to Cordoba’s flagship monument, the Mosque-Cathedral, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. In this visit, always conducted by a historian, you will have the opportunity to get to know a living temple, which has witnessed numerous historical events and which, for sure, will not leave you indifferent.

We will explain the different stages of construction, starting with the ancient Visigothic Basilica of San Vicente, of which remains are still preserved, followed by the Primitive Mosque built by Emir Abderramán I and its successive extensions until the time of Almanzor.

After the reconquest of the city by the Christian armies, the Mosque became the Cathedral, occupying several naves of the extension of Caliph al-Hakam II for liturgical celebrations. Later on, the current Cathedral Cross was built.

Enjoy a unique building in the world and an unforgettable experience.

Discover with historians and archaeologists one of the greatest jewels of Cordoba, the city that the first Umayyad Caliph Abd al-Rahman III ordered to be built, moving his entire court there. This is an essential visit to learn not only about Caliphate art, but also about the importance of Al-Andalus as an economic, social and cultural power in the society of the time.
