About
Seville Cathedral and Giralda stand in the heart of Seville, in Andalusia, Spain. The cathedral is also known as the Catedral de Sevilla, or the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See, and the address is Avenida de la Constitución, s/n, 41001 Sevilla.
The building is described as the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its scale is the first thing most visitors notice, with vast interior spaces that make the cathedral feel impressive even when the crowds are thick. It is a place that rewards slow walking and looking up.
What to see
- Christopher Columbus's tomb, one of the best-known points of interest inside the cathedral.
- The Giralda, the bell tower that is the cathedral's most recognisable feature and a landmark of the city skyline.
- The interior itself, whose sheer size is a visit in its own right.
Because the cathedral and the tower are the city's signature sights, a visit fits naturally into a day spent exploring central Seville. The surrounding streets and squares offer plenty to see on foot before or after your time inside.
Planning your visit
The cathedral is a site for a half-day or longer, depending on how much time you give to the tower and the interior. For the latest details on opening hours, tickets and access, you can call +34 902 09 96 92 before you go.
