What to do and see in Seville, Andalucia: The Best Museums

September 26, 2021 Kandra Bartel

Originally founded as a Roman city and now home to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Seville is bursting with antique charm. The Alcazar palace complex is a stunning collage of architectural styles, and the Cathedral will impress you with its beauty and its status as the burial site of Christopher Columbus. The Metropol Parasol is the world’s largest wooden structure, a massive mix of grids and swirls that contains a market and a terrace observatory.

A free to enter museum with a British passport (at the moment) we were able to wander at leisure through a magnificent exhibition of religious art by one of Sevilles greatest exponent from the 17th Century. The statues were exceedingly lifelike and the paintings were real works of art. Well worth the 2 hours we spent which seemed like half an hour

Museo Militar Regional

Reviewed By Brucestewart - Livingston, United Kingdom

We came across this interesting museum purely by chance. We were visiting the Plaza de Espana for a second time when we saw the signs for the museum. I'm a student of military history, with the Penisular War against Napoleon being one of my particular passions, so in we went as I knew that it would have much to interest me. Admittance is free although there is a donations box close to the exit point. We had to leave our bages in a locker from which we took the key and then had to pass through a scanner to enter the museum. I usually set such machines beeping as I have two metal hips, always a troublesome issue at airports, but I didn't set this scanner off. Perhaps someone should check out its settings? Anyway I found the museum to be fascinating with a great range of exhibits including model soldiers, uniforms, weapons both old and modern, ammunition, flags, coaches, cannon, gas masks including one for a horse, medals, buttons, unit shoulder patches, models of forts, the list is endless. Well worth visiting.

Museo Palacio de la Condesa de Lebrija

Reviewed By travelling-model - Hong Kong, China

Museo PALACIO de la condesa de lebrjais a house-museum in central Seville, you must take a private tour in order to visit the upper floor of the house. Dating to the 16th century and remodeled between the 18th and 20th centuries. The art collections of the house are very interesting and and unique which included a veriety of Roman mosaics and other antiquities as well as Asia art and even a couple of European master-Rubens paintings. The interior of the palace is decorated in a palette of architectural styles, with elements such as Moorish arches, Plateresque decoration, tilework retrieved from ruined convent, a coffered ceiling from a 16th-century palace and a Renaissance frieze, while its façade and layout reflect typical Andalusian style. This mansion is interesting and different compared to other attractions in Seville. I like here much and it's very Instagrammable and photogenic. Don't miss it if you love to post photos in social media. It's definitely will catch a lot of attentions. 這是塞維利亞中心的一座私人屋苑博物館。 它的歷史可追溯到16世紀,並在18和20世紀之間亦進行了改建。這所房子的藝術品收藏非常有趣且獨特,其中包括各種羅馬馬賽克、古董、亞洲藝術,甚至還有幾幅由歐洲名家魯本斯的畫作。 宮殿的內部包括摩爾拱門,Plateresque裝飾,從毀壞的修道院中回收的瓷磚,16世紀宮殿的方格天花板和文藝復興時期的,其立面和佈局反映出典型的安達盧西亞風格。 由於遊客不多。我在這裡可以自由拍攝了很多美麗的照片,真是不容錯過的景點。
