The royal chapel of Granada, which was erected to preserve the remains of the Catholic Monarchs, was built in Gothic style between 1505 and 1517. The 16th century is the century of the chapel’s fullness, where the sobriety of the building is highlighted. Under Emperor Charles I it continued to flourish with all kinds of decorations. Today, the mark left by Queen Isabella, in a certain sense, marks the large number of visits that take place every year. On this website, users can access the history of the monument, as well as take a guided tour where they can see the different cultural contributions that the chapel has undergone over the last 500 years. This portal also contains complementary information on the Lonja, built in 1518 by the Granada City Council.
