Description
In a Historical Centre Tour, learn about the Renaissance and Baroque periods in a guided tour with specialists.
Granada was incorporated into the orbit of the Christian world in 1492, which meant a radical change in its culture and population. Important investments in civil and ecclesiastical constructions were made by royalty and nobility, taking as a base some of the already existing constructions from the Muslim period.
Among them, the Santa Iglesia Catedral Metropolitana de la Encarnación de Granada (1523) stands out, which rises over the old Aljama Mosque, initially designed in Gothic style and later modified with Renaissance and Baroque lines to end up being the crowning work of the Spanish Renaissance.
In the Granada of the 15th century, the Darro River ran uncovered as it passed through it, from the first bridge that crossed it, called the Aljibillo (11th century), to the last bridge of the Genil River (11th century), which was called in Arabic Sinnil (Thousand Niles) because of its great flow.
