Planificar mi viajeExplora el fascinante pasado de Grenade y descubre cómo se ha desarrollado a lo largo de los siglos.
Although with Iberian and Roman roots, Granada flourished as the capital of the Zirí kingdom in the 11th century.However, its peak came with the Nasrid dynasty, which from the 13th century until 1492 made it the capital of the last Muslim state of Al-Andalus.During this period its greatest treasure was built: the palace complex of the Alhambra.
The taking of the city by the Catholic Monarchs in 1492 marked a turning point.A profound Christian transformation began, building the Cathedral and the Royal Chapel on the old mosque.The 19th century saw the romantic 'rediscovery' of the city by travelers such as Washington Irving, whose 'Tales of the Alhambra' catapulted it to world fame.
The 20th century was marked by figures such as Federico García Lorca, whose murder at the beginning of the Civil War left an indelible wound.Today, Granada is a vibrant university city and one of Spain's most important tourist destinations, struggling to balance the preservation of its immense heritage with modern life.
