Seville Attractions

Torre del Oro

The ‘tower of gold’, overlooking the Guadalquivir River, was part of the original Moorish city fortification, built in the 13th century, and is believed to have been covered with gold tiles imported from the Americas. The tower has been restored and now houses a maritime museum, which contains drawings and engravings depicting Seville in its heyday.

Opening time: Tuesday to Friday 10am to 2pm; weekends 11am to 2pm
