Construction of the Cathedral began in 1523 under an initial Gothic design led by Enrique Egas. In 1528, Diego de Siloé took over and transformed the project into a grand Renaissance masterpiece, making it one of the most important cathedrals of the Spanish Renaissance. Construction continued into the 18th century, and its Baroque façade was designed by Alonso Cano in 1667. It is the first great Renaissance cathedral in Spain and a masterpiece of Spanish art.

The Alhambra is a cultural treasure that combines architectural majesty with natural beauty, and it's a must-see if you visit Granada. 🕌🌺 Throughout the 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries, the fortress was transformed into a citadel with high walls and defensive towers, encompassing two main areas: the military zone, or Alcazaba, barracks of the royal guard, and the medina, or palatine city, where the famous Nasrid Palaces and the remains of the houses of nobles and commoners who lived there are located. The Palace of Charles V (built after the Catholic Monarchs conquered the city in 1492) is also situated in the medina.

The Wine Gate is located in a freely accessible area within the Alhambra, so it can be visited without a specific ticket.

Originally, it served as the main entrance to the Alhambra's medina, connecting the military area of the Alcazaba with the residential and artisan area of the palace.
