Seville Cathedral Tickets

The Cathedral of Seville is a world wonder, the largest cathedral in Spain and the third-largest in the entire world. However, if one were to make comparisons solely by the interior air volume, this cathedral might be the largest in the world. It’s one of the most visited monuments in Spain for a very good reason!

If you had visited this spot in the 12th and 13th centuries, you would have had the opportunity to visit the Almohad Mosque. Today, almost all signs of the mosque are gone, and in its place is a Christian Gothic cathedral which started in 1401. The cathedral took only a little over 100 years to complete, and all that remains of the former mosque is the Patio Naranjos and the Giralda Tower.

Visiting this cathedral is the main reason most people visit the beautiful Seville. We advise planning around four days to see this magical city – you don’t want to miss getting into the cathedral due to not planning your time well.

The cathedral is a sight to behold and an absolute must-see. A ticket into the cathedral will allow you to explore everything the cathedral has to offer. Here are some highlights to look forward to:

The Tomb of Christopher Columbus

The Cathedral of Seville is where you will find the tomb of Christopher Columbus. Arturo Melida sculpted this amazing tomb. Originally the tomb was constructed in the Cathedral of Havana, but after Cuba declared its independence from Spain, it was moved to Seville.

Antecabildo, A Room In The Cathedral

The wall reliefs and sculptures in this room are of biblical events and are thought to have been done by Juan Bautista Vazquez the Elder, Diego de Velasco, and Diego de Pesique. The main entrance to the room was constructed by Herman Ruiz Jimenez, but the vault was done by Juan de Minjares and Asensio de Maeda.

The Giralda Tower

The Giralda Tower was originally a minaret, and formed part of the Moorish mosque that existed before the cathedral. The present bell room at the top was added to the tower in 1560, with construction ending in 1568AD.

Patio Mariscal, A Courtyard In The Cathedral

Also known as the Chapter Room, this courtyard was used as the residential area for the capitular lords. Be sure to look closely along the walls of the room and you might find a gravestone dated 1603.

The Patio Naranjos

In Moorish times the faithful would have visited the Almohad Mosque by way of the Naranjos courtyard, washing their feet and hands in the patio’s fountain before entering the mosque.

    Our guide for this tour was Rosa from Amigo Tours. She is fantastic – very knowledgeable and informative. Before we started the tour, one of the other participants was very upset when she learned the tour was going to be in both Spanish and English. The lady felt like she was only getting 50 of her money's worth out of the trip because of the time being spent saying the same thing in both languages. Rosa explained to the women that she translates sentence by sentence so that everyone received the same information. Rosa did exactly as she promised. I have never seen anyone switch from one language to another with every sentence, but she did. She was superb! We also had her for our guide for the Alcazar early access tour on a previous day. The Cathedral is amazing. So big and so much to see. If you went on your own, you just wouldn't be able to appreciate the many chapels and objects displayed. It is very important to have the backstory to everything, Without the backstory I wouldn't know where Christopher Columbus is buried – above or below? You must go to the top of the tower. The view is awesome!

    Easy meet-up point as it was in the same place as the Alcazar tour we took in the morning – very central. Tour guide had a lot of knowledge about the cathedral and we were glad we choose the tour as to wander round on our own we would have missed out on some important facts. Cathedral is very impressive and history impressive too. At the end of the tour my partner climbed the bell tower no extra charge and he said the views were stunning.
