Carmona Church & Alcazar Tour

The tour kicks off at 11 am in Plaza Blas Infante, adjacent to the Puerta de Sevilla. Our journey begins with an exploration of the impressive defensive structure that has safeguarded the city since ancient Carthaginian times.

We will enter the formidable Alcazar of the Puerta de Sevilla or "de Abajo", a splendid Moorish fortress. Ascending to the top of the Tower of Gold offers us stunning panoramic views of the cityscape. Following this, we'll pause at the Patio de los Aljibes, where a remarkable medieval cistern carved from rock once provided essential water to the Alcazar's inhabitants.

Our next stop will be the Iglesia de Santa María, a striking example of gothic-renaissance design, constructed atop the vestiges of the city's ancient Great Mosque.

After two enriching hours spent uncovering the fascinating cultural legacy of Carmona, we conclude our tour.
