Legends and Mysteries in Córdoba: audio walks
What's told in Córdoba, since when, and what lies underneath?
5 walks with different starting points and stories. Compare their maps, stops and duration, then choose where to begin.
Explore these walksIn Córdoba, a legend can change the way you look at a square or a street. This theme gathers the tales the city tells about itself and asks how long it has told them. The walks distinguish tradition from documented events, allowing mystery to keep its appeal without erasing the history of its setting.
In “Legends from the Corredera”: The lady of Calle del Sol and the black hand bring legends to corners of the walk between the Corredera and the Magdalena.
In “The Villa”: The general with a marble head and the tale of the sprite let you compare rumours, images and stories in the Villa's streets.
In “The Potro and the Riverside”: In the square itself: an inn with a legend about a murderous innkeeper, the rogues' square that Don Quixote names, the hospital that demanded pure blood and now holds paintings, and the painter whose picture ended up on the hundred-peseta note.

The Potro and the Riverside
In the square itself: an inn with a legend about a murderous innkeeper, the rogues' square that Don Quixote names, the hospital that demanded pure blood and now holds paintings, and the painter whose picture ended up on the hundred-peseta note.
San Agustín and San Lorenzo
You pass the Juramento, a convent that survived fire but not the demolition crews, except for its doorway, and a street that used to be a stream and has its own ghost.
Santa Marina and Capuchinos
Córdoba's northern neighbourhoods in eleven stops: the tower paid for by gamblers, the slaughtermen's quarter that produced bullfighters, the 1449 crime that legend muddled up, a 'dry' fountain that isn't and the Christ of the Lanterns.
The Villa: from San Hipólito to San Pablo
The general with a marble head and the tale of the sprite let you compare rumours, images and stories in the Villa's streets.
Córdoba, before you go
A narrow lane, an open square, then shade again. Córdoba is a rewarding walk when heat, cobbles and the appeal of a seat can adjust your plans.
