The historic city center of Granada boasts two emblematic churches replete of treasures of art: the mighty Renaissance Cathedral and the Royal Chapel, pantheon of the Catholic Monarchs. They have been erected after the conquest of the last stronghold of the Muslim Spain in 1492 by the armies of Isabella and Ferdinand. But, going deeper, do you want to know why do they constitute the most significant monuments of the Christian Granada? Do you imagine why? They appear as the unequivocal symbol of the triumph of Christianity in the heart of Granada, just next to some other monuments dating back to the medieval Islamic city, like the Madrasa (university), the Alcaicería (once the silk market) and a Moorish caravanserai from the 14th century.
-We can meet at "Plaza Isabel la Católica" -We will visit the Royal Chapel, which houses the tombs of the Catholic Monarchs, Joanna the Mad and Philip the Handsome, under magnificent cenotaphs carved on Carrara marble. -The funerary chapel possesses masterpieces of painting, sketched by Flemish and Italian artists, like Hans Memling, Van der Weyden and Botticelli. -We will visit the Cathedral, one of the largest Renaissance churches in the world, houses lavish chapels and altarpieces in the exalted Spanish baroque style. -Next to these churches, you will discover extraordinary vestiges of the medieval Islamic city: *The Madrasa (university), *The Alcaicería (once the silk market) and *A caravanserai. (If you like, we can meet at yout hotel and , from there, walking together to the heart of the city) Please contact me for a customized tour.
