Monuments That Changed Their Lives in Córdoba: audio walks

Córdoba's monuments have lived more than one life. These walks ask how they survived, what they were used for and which stories became attached to them. Looking at a bridge, a synagogue or a religious building through its transformations makes it easier to see the changing city around it, rather than an isolated, unchanging object.

In “The Mezquita and the Jewish Quarter”: You enter the Jewish Quarter by Plaza de Tiberíades and the synagogue that survived as a hospital, a shoemakers' chapel and a school.

In “The Roman Bridge and the Calahorra”: Cross the Guadalquivir in eleven stops: a monument that lists a city's fears, boats at the Bridge Gate, the little shrine where the executed were received, a tower that locked up just about everyone, and the battle that, tradition has it, gave the far bank its name.

In “The Alcázar and San Basilio”: You start beside the walls of San Basilio, the old Alcázar Viejo, a neighbourhood that held out against six breaches in 1368 and where, the story goes, the women fought with pikes and sticks.
