Free walking tour Realejo in Granada
Tour description
Under the watchful eye of the Alhambra, at the foot of this palace-fortress stands a Granada neighborhood of narrow alleyways and millenary secrets, in which the Jewish, Christian and Muslim communities lived together. It is the neighborhood of Realejo-San Matías. Our walk will allow us to know architectural jewels such as the Corral del Carbon, the only Nasrid alhondiga fully preserved in Spain. We will continue the tour along with other prominent monuments such as the stately Bibataubin Palace, which dates back to the 18th century. Strolling through the neighborhood we will also reach the House of Shots, whose name is due to some curious artillery pieces located in its frontispiece. We will also approach other important historical vestiges of the Realejo neighborhood, such as the Royal Fourth of Santo Domingo: a beautiful palatial monument dating back to the medieval era of the Almohad Muslims. We will finish this free guided tour next to the sculpture of Isabel la Católica receiving in audience the admiral of the Ocean Sea and discoverer of the New World, Don Cristóbal Colón.
