Long description

The most common thing when we delve into the tourist resources of Có; rdoba, is to decide to visit its numerous religious monumental complexes such as the imposing Mosque, now converted into a Cathedral, the various medieval churches and convents that, in a greater or lesser degree of conservation, have reached us and the different museums of all types of themes that this city has. Less known are other cultural typologies present in the city such as the gardens, mills or palaces that were built in the historic center and that also deserve to be known for their high artistic value . Today, thanks to the initiatives of some public institutions and some private organizations that have rehabilitated and given various uses to the properties, we still preserve approximately a hundred historic palaces and manor houses.
