Museum sights in Córdoba

  1. A

    Palacio de Viana

    Córdoba is famous for its patios and nowhere are they better exhibited than in this Renaissance palace with a dozen tranquil courtyards, a formal garden and a gilded house (with guided tours). It’s 500m north of the Plaza de la Corredera. Opening times are extended in July and August.

    Museo Diocesano

    The Palacio Episcopal also houses the Museo Diocesano, which has a collection of religious art. The best of this art is some outstanding medieval woodcarving, including the 13th-century Virgen de las Huertas.
