Beschrijving
Step inside Sacromonte Abbey and explore its historic catacombs, art gallery, and baroque church. Discover centuries-old relics and panoramic views over Granada.
Begin your journey at the iconic Sacromonte Abbey, perched on Valparaiso hill in Granada’s atmospheric Sacromonte district. This ticket grants you access to a remarkable complex that includes the 17th-century Abbey, the evocative Holy Caves, and one of the city’s earliest university colleges. Wander through the peaceful courtyards and admire the Latin-cross church, featuring a late baroque choir and a Renaissance ceiling crafted by Juan Vilchez. Marvel at the ornate main chapel and the revered Virgin of Sacromonte, then pause at the Cristo del Consuelo altar, a masterpiece by José Risueño.
Descend into the catacombs beneath the church, where Saint Cecilius is said to have suffered martyrdom and where the mysterious lead books were discovered. Continue to the Abbey’s museum, home to works by Sánchez Cotán, Goya, and other renowned artists. The museum also showcases religious artifacts and treasures that illuminate Granada’s Counter-Reformation history. Throughout your visit, use the included audio guide app to enrich your understanding of the Abbey’s art, legends, and traditions.
