The Giralda in SevillaPhoto: Hartmut Wimmer, Outdooractive Editors
The former minaret of the main mosque in Seville is now the bell tower of the cathedral.
In the 15th century, the former mosque on this site was demolished – the minaret, however, was used as a bell tower for the new cathedral. Today, the Giralda is considered the city's landmark. There are a total of 27 bells in the tower. When visiting Seville, you should definitely climb the Giralda – from here you have a fantastic view.
The name Giralda is derived from the Spanish word girar (to turn, to circle), as the statue at the top of the tower holds a weather vane in its hands and turns with the wind.
