Detailed itinerary

Stop 2

It is a building that has all the documents that were used for the conquest of the New World, such as cartographic maps, navigation charts ... All this information is organized in 9 kilometers of shelves, so not even in 100 of our lives could we read everything what's inside this building.

3
Stop 3

It is a monument built on an old mosque. It contains a tower, the Giralda, which has a weather vane at the top with the figure of a pregnant woman that represents the state of good hope. We will also contemplate the Puerta del Perdón, which like the Giralda is a door that has been given a Christian aspect. Proof of this are the figures that we can see flanking the entrance, Saint Peter with the keys and Saint Paul with the sword.
