Itinerary

1

Nasrid Palaces

The Dar al-Mamlaka comprises what we know today as the Nasrid Palace, each identified with the sultan who ordered its construction

2

Generalife

Beyond the Alhambra walls, a recreational building of the Nasrid sultans, and also used for agricultura

3

Palacio El Partal

Terraced area, one of the most modified in the 20th century, achieving the integration of many of its archaeo-logical structures

4

Alcazaba

Military area, with a clearly defensive function, not just because of the strength of its walls and towers, but also because it houses the military residential area

5

Palace of Carlos V

The Palace of Carlos V is a Renaissance building located on the Alhambra hill in the Spanish city of Granada, in Andalusia. Since 1958, it has been the headquarters of the Museum of Fine Arts of Granada and, since 1994, it has also been the headquarters of the Alhambra Museum

6

Church of Santa Maria de la Alhambra

The decision to build the Palace in the Alhambra symbolized the triumph of Christianity over Islam. Outstanding along this segment of the road is St Mary Church of the Alhambra, the building of which was completed in the 17th century on the site of the Alhambra’s Great Mosque; and the baths partially preserved in the house where composer Angel Barrios was born and lived, today a Museum in honour of the composer that evokes the intellectual ambience of the first third of the 20th century
