Carmen de los Martires

Paseo de los Mártires, s/n, Granada, Spain
Tel: +34 958 227 953
 

This elegant and luxurious 19th-century mansion stands on a site with some gruesome history. During the Moorish occupation of the city, those who worked on building the Alhambra palaces and who knew too many royal secrets were imprisoned in dungeons here. During the 16th century, when Christians had conquered Granada, it became a convent. Later, in the 19th century, it was converted into a residential palace, which you can visit along with the wonderful gardens. It's located on the Alhambra hill, close to Manuel de Falla's House and Museum, above the Realejo district. Admission is free.

  • I loved everything.
  • I wish they would take a little better care of it.

“I spent a semester studying in Granada, Spain and Carmen De Los Martires was my favorite place to relax. I brought my best friends up to the top of the park for a final sunset in Granada, over the Alhambra. It's gorgeous.”
