Overview & History

Granada Cathedral is one of Spain's great Renaissance cathedrals, begun in 1523 on the site of the city's former Great Mosque after the 1492 Reconquista. Its white-and-gold interior and monumental facade adjoin the Capilla Real but are a separately ticketed monument, run by the Granada Archdiocese alongside the Cartuja Monastery and other Christian monuments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Granada Cathedral included with the Granada Card?
Yes — it's included on every Granada Card tier (24h, 48h, 72h, and Jardines).

Do I need to book a time slot in advance?
No — unlike the Alhambra, there is no mandatory timed-entry reservation system for the Cathedral.
