Since they were declared World Heritage Sites in 1987, the Cathedral, Alcázar and Archive of the Indies have consolidated their international appeal and form the driving force of one of the most attractive cities for tourism. A living legacy that must be enjoyed, disseminated and protected. From the 10th century to the 19th century, history has been around this Sevillian square. A period during which the capital of the Almohad kingdom would end up becoming the de facto capital of Europe and America. This exciting walk begins in the 10th century in the area behind the main gate of the Alcázar, when Abderramán III, the Umayyad caliph who promoted Medina Azahara, built a seat for his government. The Giralda has been on display just opposite since the year 1200 as a powerful symbol of the new mosque, of which it is still possible to enjoy the ablutions courtyard. Today, the largest Gothic temple in Europe can be seen around it. The Cathedral filled the city with builders and architects in the 15th century, and years later, sailors and adventurers would appear from all over the world at the call of America. #documentalsevilla #historiasevilla #documentalescompletosenespañol For more information: https://www.cedecom.es Facebook: / cedecomaudiovisual Twitter: / cedecom
