A town full of history. The castle was the best choice to visit, amazing view over the city.

Great place to visit if you want to understand the city better. This fortress was first built way before roman times. You can clearly see the roman ruins and the ruins of the Arabic period, but the first layer of stones is from the Carthaginian period. The folder gives you a lot of explanation, as well as the texts you can find in one of the rooms. Audio is only in Spanish. Booking required for guided visits.

One of the oldest towns in europe. Great side trip from Seville. The parking is reasonable, with no entrance fee for the old walled city. There are several museums and churches to visit. A very laid back yet intersting place.

Wonderful architecture, a vast palace with several big gardens full of history. Be aware that, because of COVID19, you can only buy tickets online with credit card (code generator machine needed), so if you are coming from an outside country buy the tickets in advance.

On part of the old fortress walls in Carmona. Still majestic though only a small part of it remains. A great place to take photos or climb to the top to see the surrounding area.

Hours of history to explore. You can even use your phone for the audio guide. You can purchase tickets online to skip the line to buy them in person.

If you don't go up this place, you can't say you've seen this city. This is the most beautiful view point. If I should choose between a famous restaurant and this place in Carmosa, I choose this puerta.

I loved the visit. You can ask for an introduction video of 20 minutes in your native language (at least English and French). The site shows pictures and explanation that throw you back in time.

it is really historical and nice town in Sevilla.. From Sevilla center you can go by bus or by car and it is around 20-30 minutes … It is good alternative to have a nice day and eat good food 😅 We ate in Plaza de Abastos and at Bar Goya … All of them was very nice but also i loved all the food at Bar Goya … Should mention quite expensive but good for some weekendvibes😇 I have put photo of our salad🤤 It is a small town but nice town for walk so it is better if you go when the weather is not so hot… During summer time it would be better to visit morning time or during late afternooon Or you can do what we did ; we ate all early afternnoon and waited for weather to be little cooler then we walked around😂😂 We were too full but also we 🔥 some calories for sure😊 Aaa i forget to mention that we had coffe too😌 In Carmona there is very beautiful Parador 🏨 and they have very nice view of surrounding area .. We only had coffe there and it was expensive again but could be nice experience to have rest over there… Otel has also some nice pool 🏊‍♀️ For you i have put some photos from there as well If you enjoy the day like i do let me know vale😇

Free to visit this is a very interesting place especially if you want to know more about Roman burials. Views of the surrounding countryside are also good. Certainly worth a visit.

Roman Necropolis on top of a hill overlooking surrounding area. It’s an beautiful area. Museum is very small. The necropolis contains the famous elephant tomb where a rich aristocrat’s family was thought to have been buried.

Necropolis, small museum, nice park. No access to underground tombs. Free entry.

A great archeological site with an interesting museum and one of the most unique necropolis I've seen in any roman town across Europe. A must see when visiting Carmona!

The staff is really kind and welcoming, the Necropolis is well preserved and very interesting.

This door is located on the Via Augusta and was protecting the city from the east. It looks like it has to be heavily restored. When crossing it, you will have a nice view on the Campina.

Under major repair to the outer wall.

Puerta de Cordoba is one of fine places in Carmona. It is located at the entry of the town, so we could set it as a goal for our bicycle trip. Finally, The yellow color of Cordoda welcomes me and there are nothing to distract your sight.

Lovely small "village" with lots of ancient buildings , not too touristy.

An easy bus ride from Seville that drops you off in the main square, from here you can walk uphill to the first ancient gate and on through the town until you get to this Roman gate where the main Roman road enters Carmona, before the Romans it was a Carthaginian city.

Living history and archeology. A must on your to do list.

Well preserved Roman gates for entry to Carmona. Pity that everything looks neglected due to coronavirus.

Spectacular church whose exterior does not do it much justice regarding its interior. Full of history, you are supplied with all the information before entering.

Everything is so delicate! Every little chapel has its own charm. A must it to come during the day when the sun is hitting the colorful windows the lights give an amazing rainbow effect which makes the experience even more magical

Newly restored. Just a stunning small church in the centre of Seville. Pop in here in the way to El Rinconcillo

Wonderful colours of the sun light reflecting the windows.

As the sunshine comes through the colorful windows is just...Wow!

Super

It was closed.

Very helpful and insightful.

Nice people, a little tricky if your Spanish is as poor as mine is. There are maps of Carmona in English - best to look up what you want to see before you go, is my advice.

Extremely helpful staff. Both ladies we spoke to spoke English. They even helped us to book a taxi back to the airport, as we were having difficulties communicating with a taxi company.

An essential point to start your visit to Carmona, with very friendly staff that know the ins and outs of interesting places to visit, including the various churches, hikes etc. You can buy tickets of the Porte del Sevillia, a beautiful castle with foundations originating from 10 centuries BC. Magnificent views on the city when visting the walls.

Great help despite language barrier

(Translated by Google) Very good service, very nice girls in the office. You can get the ticket to visit the Alcázar, it is essential to visit this monument. Constructions from the Carthaginian era to today, and magnificent views from the Torre del Oro, prepare your camera because you will want to take in every corner of this monument (Original) Muy buena atención, muy agradables las chicas d la oficina. Puedes sacar la entrada para visitar el Alcázar, imprescindible visitar este monumento. Construcciones des de época cartaginesa hasta hoy día, y vistas desde la Torre del Oro magníficas, prepara cámara pq querrás llevarte cada rincón de este monumento

(Translated by Google) The ladies are very friendly! It's highly recommended to get a ticket there and enjoy the view from the Puerta de Sevilla at the same time. (Original) Die Damen sind sehr freundlich! Empfehlenswert sich dort eine Karte zu holen und im gleichen Zug darüber die Aussicht auf der Puerta de Sevilla zu geniessen.

Amazing to learn that this little town has been occupied for thousands of years the by the Carthaginians the Romans the Moors and then the Spanish. Interesting artifacts and good gallery of paintings.

Fascinating museum full of Roman relics, mosaics, Palaeolithic rocks, paintings etc explaining the history of Carmona. Not always coherent but interesting & some of the information boards have been modernised whilst others haven’t. I quite liked the rustic ness of it! Beautiful courtyards. We left feeling like we had gained useful knowledge. All for only €2.50!

I enjoyed the parts about Tartessos and roman times. QR codes help you have more information in your native language or English. The palace it’s located in is nice.

This is an incredible little museum! I had no idea the history of the town was so long. Well worth the hour or so to tour through.

You are given an English pamphlet about the tour of the museum. It has several rooms containing artifacts from different ages. If you use the QR codes at the door they tell you more about the exhibited pieces and the era. It is a lovely building with some interesting history and a nice restaurant/bar.

Charming museum in a beautiful house. You will learn about the history of Carmona and see some interesting artefacts.

Stunning old architecture. Beautiful wee town. Square is amazing and quiet. Relaxed atmosphere and it's even better at night. Food and drink cheap. Love the place and will be going back one day

Cosy and quiet. Great cookies :)

(Translated by Google) Good sweets. The truth is that the only thing worth visiting is the interior of the church and the patio. On the way up to the tower it is not worth stopping at the objects there except for a couple of curious manuscripts and the views from above. But above all, buy the traditional English cake. (Original) Buenos dulces. La verdad q lo único q merece la pena visitar es el interior de la iglesia y el patio. En la subida a la la torre no merece la pena pararse en los objetos q hay salvo un par de curiosos manuscritos y las vistas desde arriba. Pero sobretodo comprar la tradicional torta inglesa.

(Translated by Google) I think, judging by its exterior appearance and its extraordinary tower, it must be one of the best in the town. What I'm sure of is that it's closed on Sunday mornings. But its tower is a marvel. (Original) Yo creo que , por si aspecto exterior y su torre extraordinaria , debe ser de lo más en la localidad .Lo que tengo claro es que los Domingos por la mañana no la abren .

(Translated by Google) The Carmona-Seville Line that the City Council has contracted with the Casals company is a scam. This City Council, its mayor and its councilors literally laugh in the faces of the people of Carmona. Going to work at 8:00 in the morning in Seville is a literally impossible odyssey, because taking the bus at 6:45 or 7:00 (direct) takes more than an hour to go on the highway from the Carmona stop to the San Bernardo stop (Seville) and you are always arriving late. The only option that Casals and the City Council gives you is to take a bus at 6:00 in the morning, which means you have to get up at least at 4:45 or 4:30 in the morning. The reason? Countless stops in urbanizations, where at most one or two people are picked up. All screwed by two people. Perhaps the worst thing is not that, but that after getting up early, you find yourself with a queue of 70-80 people to take a measly 50-seater bus. People who have to wait for the next bus. Casals literally sucks your energy. The politicians of this City Council don't care if you leave your life and health on a crappy bus. If you work or study in Seville, buy a car or rent an apartment in Seville and flee Carmona. This Town Hall only functions as a farmhouse for a few privileged people. (Original) La Línea carmona-sevilla que tiene contratado el Ayuntamiento con la empresa Casals es una estafa. Este Ayuntamiento, su alcalde y sus concejales literalmente se ríen en la cara de los carmonenses. Entrar a trabajar a las 8.00 de la mañana en Sevilla es una odisea literalmente imposible, porque cogiendo el autobús a las 6.45 o a las 7.00 (directo) se tarda más de una hora en ir por la autovía desde la parada de Carmona a la de San Bernardo (Sevilla) y siempre estás llegando tarde. La única opción que te da Casals y el Ayuntamiento es coger un bus a las 6.00 de la mañana, con lo cual te tienes que levantar como mínimo a las 4.45 o 4.30 de la madrugada. ¿El motivo? Infinidad de paradas en urbanizaciones, donde a lo sumo se recoge una o dos personas. Todos jodldos por dos personas. Quizá lo peor no sea eso, sino que después de haberte dado el madrugón, te encuentres con una cola de 70-80 personas para coger un mísero autobús de 50 plazas. Gente que se tiene que quedar esperando al siguiente autobús. Casals literalmente te chupa la energía. A los políticos de este Ayuntamiento les da igual que te dejes la vida y la salud en un autobus de mlerda. Si trabajas o estudias en Sevilla, cómprate un coche o alquílate un piso en Sevilla y huye de Carmona. Este Ayuntamiento solo funciona como cortijo de unos pocos privilegiados.

(Translated by Google) Badly located, average facade, I respect that the interior could improve. (Original) Mal ubicado , fachada normalita , respeto que el interior mejore .

(Translated by Google) For information that doesn't affect you the same as me: 1. City Hall doesn't have afternoon service in August. 2. Morning hours are until 1 p.m., not 2 p.m. as Google says, and if you arrive after 1 p.m., they won't serve you. (Original) Para información que no le suceda lo mismo que a mi persona; 1. El ayuntamiento no atiende por las tardes en Agosto. 2. El Horario por las mañanas es hasta las 1pm no hasta las las 2pm como dice el Google, y si llegas después de la 1pm no te atienden.

(Translated by Google) We spent a lovely weekend at the Carmona parador, but for a tourist like me, Carmona could better be called the city of cats. I don't think I've seen so many stray cats in my life. A wonderful association called "cats with a voice" takes care of them. But they need help and funding from the city council which is now, by law, responsible for them. I can only hope that the council does as good a job as the wonderful talking cat volunteers. (Original) Hemos pasado un fin de semana encantador en el parador de Carmona, pero para un guiri como yo Carmona mejor podría llamarse la ciudad de los gatos. No creo haber visto tantos gatos callejeros en mi vida. Una maravillosa asociación llamada "gatos con voz" se ocupa de ellos. Pero necesitan ayuda y financiación del ayuntamiento que ahora, por ley, es responsable de ellos. Sólo me queda esperar que el ayuntamiento haga un trabajo tan bueno como los maravillosos voluntarios de gatos con voz.

(Translated by Google) Paintings with rural scenes of harvesting farm workers in the waiting area at the town hall. Would that indeed make the wait more pleasant? And if that doesn't do it, then at least the large Roman mosaic that adorns the patio. In any case, it is unique & special! (Original) Schilderijen met plattelandstaferelen van oogstende landarbeiders in de wachtruimte op het gemeentehuis. Zou dat het wachten inderdaad aangenamer maken? En als dat het niet doet, dan in elk geval het grote Romeinse mozaïek dat de patio siert. Het is hoe dan ook uniek & bijzonder!

(Translated by Google) Strong 17th century building built by the Jesuits as a school, used as accommodation after their expulsion in the 18th century and finally as a town hall since 1842. The corner location, almost outside the central Plaza de San Fernando, and with the entrance on a narrow street, is curious. This circumstance is not common in most town councils in Spain. (Original) Contundente edificio del siglo XVII construido por los Jesuitas para colegio, usado como hospedaje tras la expulsión de éstos en el XVIII y por fin ayuntamiento desde 1842. Resulta curiosa la ubicación tan esquinada casi fuera de la céntrica plaza de San Fernando, y con la entrada en una estrecha calle. No es común esta circunstancia en la mayoría de los ayuntamientos de España.

(Translated by Google) On the Plazuela del Marqués de las Torres is the Monastery of the Barefoot, founded in 1629 against the will of the Cabildo de Carmona, which could be explained by its proximity to the Monastery of Santa María de la Asunción. The official inauguration therefore only took place in 1748. There is currently an association of Augustinian nuns with the Barefoots. Inside the monastery, the church is characterized by its rich Baroque decoration, crowned by a double-fronted façade and a tower. The imposing building has a large facade and a projecting bell tower with a crenellated wall to cover the order's cemetery. (Original) Auf der Plazuela del Marqués de las Torres befindet sich das Kloster der Barfüßer, das 1629 gegen den Willen des Cabildo de Carmona gegründet wurde, was aufgrund der Nähe zum Kloster Santa María de la Asunción zu erklären wäre. Die offizielle Einweihung fand daher erst 1748 statt. Gegenwärtig gibt es einen Zusammenschluss von Augustiner-Nonnen mit den Barfüßigen. Im Inneren des Klosters zeichnet sich die Kirche durch ihre reiche barocke Dekoration aus, die von einer Fassade mit Doppelfassade und einem Turm gekrönt wird. Der imposante Bau hat eine große Fassade und einen vorgeschobenen Glockenturm mit einer Mauer mit Zinnen, um den Friedhof des Ordens zu überdachen.
