About the Alhambra

Carlos V Palace

Construction on the Carlos V Palace began in 1527 but was only completed in 1957. The square palace features an imposing circular courtyard ringed by 32 columns, and inside the palace you’ll find two museums: the Alhambra Museum with its vast collection of Islamic artefacts and the Museum of Fine Arts, which displays artworks from between the 15th and 20th centuries.

The Medina

Once home to public baths, community ovens and a selection of workshops, the Medina was destroyed during the War of Independence. These days, visitors can view the foundations, complete with parapet walls and battlements of the rampart.

Nazrid Palaces

There are three important areas inside the Nazrid Palaces. Enter through the 14th century Mexuar, where the emir once sat with his council of ministers. The intricately carved wooden walls, pillars and ceilings tell a story of the opulence once enjoyed here. The Camares Palace was once the king’s official residence while the Palace of the Lions housed the harems. Here you’ll find the complex, geometrically designed courtyard with its pretty columns and ornamental pavilions.

Alcazaba

The original 13th century citadel now lies in ruins but it’s still possible to climb the watchtower and enjoy panoramic views of Granada.

Generalife

Dating back to the 14th century, the Generalife has been altered many times throughout history. Once the Sultan’s summer estates, the Gereralife is now a beautiful maze of pretty pathways, fountains and pools, tumbling flowers and towering trees. A 700-year-old cypress tree reminds us what things may once have looked like.

Basilica of Saint John of God

Glittering with golden adornments and baroque embellishment, the basilica of Saint John of God is situated close enough to the Alhambra in Granada for it to be well worth visiting. Built in the 1700s, the basilica’s centrepiece is the remains of St John of God which lie in a recess behind the alter, surrounded by an endless sea of gold.
