Seville boasts an incredibly rich history. The Romans once governed all of Spain for over six centuries, transforming the landscape of the countryside and towns by constructing aqueducts and straight roads that connected all major settlements.
Nonetheless, it was the Muslim invaders who left the most enduring impact on Seville. Their Dynasty thrived for nearly 800 years in Andalusia, from 711 until 1492, when the Catholic monarchs ultimately vanquished the Muslim kingdom of Granada. Many of Seville’s most magnificent structures are a testament to this era.
After the fall of Granada, Spain entered an age of prosperity and growth. The discovery of the New World positioned Seville as one of the wealthiest cities in Europe. However, by the 18th century, Spain had descended into economic turmoil, and during the 19th and early 20th centuries, widespread poverty and hardship ignited political strife, culminating in civil war.
Today, Seville stands as the capital of Andalusia and ranks among the most visited cities in Spain.
