Seville: Architectural Heritage

Seville has been shaped over the centuries by many cultures that have molded its present appearance and its heritage. The art of restoration is manifested in its architecture through its respect   to   the   inherited   values, the maintenance of the spatial richness and the historical memory.

It   has   been   updated  from   the contemporary point of view through new materials and concepts, compatible with tradition.

In addition, the city features many places where the Arabic influence is still very present. We find it in the city outline, in the atmosphere of the streets, and in its architecture, preserved and adapted to current needs.

We will find forgotten places, most of them ignored in tourist guides that, however, are pearls that help us understand and enjoy a magnificent hidden Seville. Discover the cultural and architectural heritage from Seville in this 2 day guided tour by a professional guide architect.
