The Alcazar of Seville:
history, curiosities and legends
The origin of the Sevillian Alcázar is in the old citadel (al-qasbah) of Madinat Isbiliya, the Islamic Seville. Over the centuries, the palatial space has been modified and renovated until it is in unbeatable condition to this day, being considered the oldest royal palace in Europe that is still in use.
The Alcázar belongs to the Seville City Council since 1931, when it was ceded by the government of the Second Republic, and since 1993 it has been managed by the Royal Alcázar Board of Trustees. Currently, by agreement with the National Heritage, the so-called “High Royal Room” is ceded for the exclusive use of the Spanish Royal House and other heads of state. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1987, along with the Cathedral and the Archivo de Indias. Entering the Reales Alcázares of Seville is entering an evocative world worthy of the best of fairy tales.
With more than fifteen hectares of palatial buildings and seven hectares of gardens, it has always stood out for its beauty and splendor. The gardens of the Alcázar are a kind of great historical botanical garden, with some 170 species from all over the world, where you can see the stylistic evolution of European gardens. As Walt Disney said at the time: “You could not have built a more beautiful and grandiose set.”
Our tours will introduce the visitor to a magical world where they can explore the different cultures that have passed through the city, contemplate the different artistic styles that have left their mark on its buildings and get lost in its evocative gardens.
If you want the easiest way to visit Seville’s top monuments in one go, our Alcazar Seville Tour is the most complete option.

The Alcazar of Seville in Game of Thrones series
In April 2011, the HBO network premiered a television series called Game of Thrones, inspired by the series of novels ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’. What they could not imagine was the impact it would cause at a global level. In just eight years, it has become one of the mythical and cult series that has stood out, not only for its plot and audience but for its production carried out all over the world, to the point of generating exclusive tourism to visit the filming places. So, when in 2014, HBO announced Seville as the venue for the recording of the fifth season of this series, it was a real revolution.
According to one of the producers, Dan Weiss: ‘Seville is a wonderful city in a wonderful country. As I look around, I think that someone kindly designed all this for us many years ago, as if he was waiting for us to film. We could never have paid for something like this. Thanks to Carlos V for building it’. Seville became the capital of the kingdom of Dorne, and the Alcazar in The Water Gardens as a palace of the Martell dynasty, since the description of this kingdom in the books, tells us about a kingdom very similar to Al-Andalus. Thus, in the Alcázar, very important scenes were recorded for the future of the series. Plot and places such as The Ambassadors Room, the Grutescos Gallery, the Queen María Baths and others…where stories and anecdotes will be discovered by you with our guides.
