Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba

The Great Mosque of Cordoba represents a unique artistic achievement due to its size and the sheer boldness of the height of its ceilings.

The thousand year old mosque-cathedral is definitely worth to pay a visit. The price of thirteen euros per person is not Overly pricy. You can take e a lot of amazing photos and pictures in the building.

Our tour guide was amazing and great. She explained a lot about the history and all the small details in the mosque. So k recommend going with a tour guide, although not super necessary.

The most beautiful and unique cathedral experience. Mosque converted to Christian church, in stunning Cordoba. On a weekday we walked up to the ticket booth and bought tickets for the day of visit. High season visitors should purchase in advance from official site.

The Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba left an indelible mark on my heart. This enchanting monument is a true testament to the seamless integration of Islamic and European Catholic architecture, creating an atmosphere that is both spiritually captivating and historically rich.

The craftsmanship within the cathedral is nothing short of extraordinary. Every corner holds a treasure trove of precious items and icons, each telling a story of dedication and artistic brilliance. The meticulous handcrafting evident throughout the cathedral adds an authentic touch, making the experience all the more immersive.

The central church, with its awe-inspiring presence, stands as a symbol of the harmonious coexistence of diverse cultural influences. Walking through the intricate archways and marveling at the intricate details, I found myself in constant amazement.

In all my travels, I've never been as profoundly impressed by a monument as I have by the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba. It's not just a building; it's a living testament to the beauty that emerges when different cultures converge. A must-visit for anyone seeking a blend of history, art, and spiritual wonder.

This place is simply amazing! If you are in Madrid I would recommend to book a high speed train and spend there one day! The Mosque inside is amazing! The architecture is simply… wow… in this place you will se mosque and cathedral in one place. I really believe that this place is one of a kind and very unique to see.

What a fantastic place. I am so glad I made the effort to get here on a day trip from Seville . Quite awesome and so much history . I was feeling lazy on the day and was in two minds I believe I made the right decision . I would recommend a visit to anybody . Also I got to light another candle for my mother , win win .

A must visit in Cordoba and one of great historical significance in light of human, religious, and architectural history. I highly recommend paying for a tour guide with a notable company. My tour guide was solely responsible for my awesome and educational experience. I did not go up the tower as I didn't have time to wait for entry but I'll definitely return one day so I can check out the view from up above. I recommend arriving early though it doesn't take too long to tour the entire mosque cathedral. The surrounding area is very interesting and worth exploring as well. The surrounding cities remind me of parts in the Assassin's Creed game series.

Absolutely stunning. Exquisite architecture, carvings in stone, wood and more. A fascinating and “must see” place to visit. Very interesting historically and much larger than it seems from the outside so give yourselves a good hour or more. Also worth getting tickets for the Bell Tower. Fabulous views - and you get up close to the enormous bells themselves. We were there as soon as it opened and didn’t have to queue for tickets. All very easy.

Don’t miss it. Easy to get to on train. Book tickets in advance on website and show QR code, then you are guaranteed entry. The Islamic architecture of the Mosque- Cathedral is stunning thanks to the foresight of the Umayyad dynasty of al-Andalus and especially Abd al-Rahman I who founded the mosque in 785. Being inside and witnessing the geometry and genius of these builders is breathtaking.

One of the most interesting places you can ever visit in your life, outstanding architecture. unique mixture of cultures. 800 columns, colors, muslim decorations and writings on the walls, christian idols and signs. absolutely stunning place, in my top 10 list of places I have been to.

Amazing cathedral, possibly the most extensive and fascinating we have visited.
Beautiful architecture, fabulous stained glass and simply impressive fir it's extent. Allow at least a couple of hours.

The Mezquita of Córdoba is known for its historical and architectural importance. Many visitors rate it highly for its unique combination of Islamic and Christian influences. I recommend a visit if you are interested in rich cultural heritage.

There is no need to go further. This is one of the rarest places in the world because it contains Christian and Islamic works together. When you look at the architecture, you are fascinated. The world can live in peace. It may also be useful to read the history of this place. Tickets are 10 eur for student, 13 eur for adults .

If your a history lover this place is to be added to your list, this architectural marvel has gone from being a mosque to church to then a cathedral with its giant minaret turned church bell tower to its Islamic columns inside next to giant catholic relics and symbols all harmoniously blending together. Stepping inside was a moment of peace you can’t describe, the place is absolutely stunning with tall ceilings and proper lightning inside to set a mood. The green courtyard is spacious and has a water feature to take pics. This place is not to be missed I feel blessed to have witnessed this important piece of Spanish history.

Truly amazing. It has amazing nooks, intricate carvings, a variety of architectural and design styles, interesting history, and an absolutely large (though not necessarily tall) floor plate.

We Prebooked tickets and no real wait to enter. Inside they do have a small sign with QR codes to different language PDF guides, which really recommend if seeing independently as there are few to no signs inside.

They also have a small treasures section in the back we almost missed - it’s only 2-3 rooms but really pretty.

Note you can go through the main courtyard for free so able to see the exterior architecture, but really do recommend the inside too!

I feel as though my one 45-60 minute visit wasn’t enough - I was more appreciating the size and variety of architecture/history, but need a second visit to better look at the detailed art, carvings, chapels (and more) throughout.

Córdoba mosque was a wonderful place to visit, the architecture is phenomenal and breathtaking, the sense of serenity and the vibes in the Mosque-Cathedral is nostalgic. We visited in December so weather was great, the monument wasn’t crowded and there is a plenty of space outside to walk around and enjoy the outside view.

You can't miss visiting a world heritage awarded monument when you are near by and this is no exception. It dies not look like anything from the outside. It's just a solid perimeter wall 8 m high penned in by all the shops and narrow lanes. As you enter the gate as if by magic it suddenly opens out to a courtyard full of orange trees. In regular rows rising up and spreading out. Walk into the Mosquita and you see a forest full of columns arching up the roofs. There is lots to see here and you should allow about two hours.
Magical building that spans the ages.
