Activity itinerary

Mirador del Valle
  • 15m
Magnificent panoramic view of the city, from which the importance of this strategic enclave is understood, formed on a hill surrounded by the Tagus River, in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula. From the viewpoint, we can enjoy the skyline dominated by the Alcázar and the Gothic Cathedral, also the Baroque church dedicated to San Ildefonso. Also noteworthy is the Castillo San Servando and the military academy, and of course the entire Toledo hamlet covering the rock in which the various bell towers of the many parish churches that emerge throughout the city stand out. Of interest are also the archaeological remains around the river of Arab baths or the industry and crafts of a glorious past.
San Martin Bridge
  • 10m
Medieval bridge from the 14th century, settled on five arches and formed between two defensive towers on impressive doors that give access to the Jewish quarter. The perspective from here to the Jewish quarter built on the rocky cliffs is wonderful.
Puerta de Alfonso VI
  • 10m
Example of Spanish-Muslim military architecture from the 10th century. Built in the second walled area to protect the suburbs. It was until the 16th century the main entrance to the city. The name it receives is due to the fact that it was through it that the Castilian King Alfonso VI, accompanied by the Cid Campeador, entered on May 6, 1085 to take the city from Islamic hands. Preserve the elements of defence, including a forward keep and a parade ground.
Puerta del Sol
  • 5m
Door that was originally a bastion tower attached to the Roman wall. It is the most Toledo of all the doors, in it we can differentiate the imprint of the different cultures that have dominated the city. Its entrance is made through a great horseshoe arch from the Caliphate era that is supported by columns and Roman ashlars. Its last reform corresponds to the fourteenth century in Mudejar style. It was the access to the Islamic medina, a space where the residential, commercial and religious areas were located.
Mosque of Christ of the Light
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket not included
This valuable thousand-year-old building is a unique example of the architecture of al-Andalus, a small square-plan mosque, distributed in three naves separated by reused columns of Roman origin and Visigoth capitals, covered by nine completely different vaults. In the 12th century it was consecrated as a church, undergoing a reform to add a Mudejar apse decorated inside with Romanesque fresco paintings representing a Pantocrator. Outside it has a beautiful garden from which you can enjoy a panoramic view of the suburbs and the different walled perimeters.
Plaza De Zocodover
  • 10m
The nerve centre of the city. It dates from the Andalusian medieval period, a moment that began to be dedicated to the commercial function, a function that has remained over time. With the Christian conquest the public and festive function is present and here receptions, bulls and other festivals are celebrated. The current configuration attends to a 16th century reform, when by order of King Felipe II, an attempt was made to homogenize the Castilian squares with balconies and arcades, surrounding its perimeter with taverns, inns and inns, a function that continues to be preserved today, with its current restaurants, bars and hotels, since then the busy atmosphere of the Plaza de Zocodover has been configured.
Catedral Primada
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
This visit is one of the most surprising and enriching experiences that we will live in Toledo. Stopping in each of its corners, interpreting them and seeing how art evolves through faith. Consecrated to the Virgin Mary in her Assumption to heaven, in a Gothic style with a clear French influence, its construction began in 1226, with Ferdinand III as King of Castile. It was finally finished in 1493 under the reign of the Catholic kings. During the visit, we will surround its perimeter, stopping at its doors, towers, and main facade. Inside we will take a tour of the main spaces and Museums: Chapel of the Descent, Custody, Cloister, Chapel of S. Blas, Main Chapel, Choir, Crypt, Sacristy where we will enjoy the spectacular art gallery with the Expolio and Apostolate of El Greco, works by Goya, Velazquez, Tiziano ... we will pass through the Chapel of the New Kings, Chapter House and we will end up at the Transparente, a culmination of the Spanish Baroque.
San Roman Church
  • 20m
Wonderful example of Toledo Mudejar from the 12th century. Decorate its interior walls with Romanesque fresco paintings. It is the seat of the Museum of the Visigoth Councils. It is a perfect support to understand the history of the Middle Ages in Toledo, since it summarizes like no other space the mixture and the superposition of cultures that inhabited the city.
Jewish Quarter
  • 30m
The first Jewish community arrived in these lands in Roman times, and little by little they will grow in number and influence, until they form a large area in population that will have ten synagogues and five rabbinical study centers. It was the most influential Jewish quarter in Sefarad (Hebrew name for the Iberian Peninsula). Today many remains are preserved, including valuable archaeology, mikves, two splendid synagogues, one of them dates from the 12th century, the oldest in Europe and the other from the 14th century.
El Transito Synagogue and Sephardic Museum
  • 20m
Built in the 14th century by Samuel ha-Leví, treasurer of King Pedro I of Castile, it is currently the Museum of Sephardic Culture. It has an impressive prayer room, women's gallery and museum where we can learn about the religious and cultural traditions, the daily life of the Jews throughout their history, also their origin, diasporas, arrival in Roman Hispania and expulsion from Europe. in 1492. At this time we will take a break, the group will have free time to have lunch, shop or walk, until 4:00 p.m.
Museo del Greco
  • 40m
Located in a typical Toledo palace house from the 16th century, close to the one that El Greco lived in Toledo, it recreates the different environments of a house of the time to favour the understanding of the public. The museum centers its discourse around the figure of the painter and the influence of his work and personality in the Toledo of his time, through his paintings, among which a magnificent Apostolate and the View and plan of Toledo stand out, the museum is complete with work by contemporary artists.
Iglesia de Santo Tome
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket not included
Here we can enjoy the culminating work of El Greco, The Burial of the Lord of Orgaz, in 1588. It collects all the virtues of the painter's brilliant mind and brushes. It is a key work in the history of universal painting.
Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket not included
It was ordered to be built by the Catholic Monarchs, as a thanksgiving for the victory of the battle of Toro in 1476, which gave the throne to Isabel I of Castile. In a particular and characteristic Gothic style arrived from Flanders and developed in Castile, it forms a precious architectural example, where its excellent church and luxurious cloister stand out.
