General information

Destination
Granada, Spain

Program details

If the Alhambra is the masterpiece of the Muslim Granada, the Cathedral and Royal Chapel are the Christian ones.



The Cathedral was erected on the place where the Main Mosque of the city used to be on behalf of Isabella of Castilla and is one of the first Renaissance constructions of Spain.



The Royal Chapel is built right next to the Cathedral and the Madraza -the old Coranic School.



It is one of the biggest mausoleums in Europe and it is a symbol for Christianity as it was the place where the Catholic Kings decided to rest forever in. The graves of Juana -their daughter-, Philippe -their son-in-law- and Miguel de la Paz -their grandson- are located here as well.
