0
(0)
The Seville Bullring, officially known as Plaza de Toros de la Real Maestranza de Caballería de Sevilla, is one of Spain’s oldest and most prestigious bullrings. Built in the 18th century, it stands as an architectural and cultural symbol of Seville’s deep-rooted traditions. Even for those not attending a bullfight, the site offers a fascinating museum that reveals the art, history, and controversy behind Spain’s most famous spectacle.

What to See & Do

  • 🎨 Explore the Bullfighting Museum to view an extensive collection of traditional matador costumes and art that chronicles the history of the spectacle 🖼️
  • 👑 Admire the stunning Baroque architecture of the Royal Box which has hosted members of the Spanish monarchy for centuries 🏛️
