Its religious-monumental value:
To begin to understand the magnitude of this monument, one must go back to the clashes between Islam and Christianity. Therefore, the Mosque-Cathedral, or, depending on how you look at it, the Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba, is first and foremost an irrefutable witness to this dichotomy of Medieval humanity. For all these reasons, the Private Cultural Tour of the Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba finally helps to interpret this duality in its most architectural sense. In conclusion, its technical explanation is a means to better decrypt a historical period that sometimes seems to remain unresolved. Indeed, it turns out to be a topical issue today, ten centuries later.

The cathedalic institution of this enclave is nowadays a church. This is how they offer their services and religious ceremonies. For this reason, the church is open for worship and liturgy according to the appropriate timetable. However, worship takes place in areas reserved for this purpose (the opening of the worship area is therefore not the same as a "cultural visit to the historical monument"). ) Consequently, in order to visit the more historic parts of the monument, it is necessary to use the corresponding entrances to the "monument sightseeing tour", for which tickets must be purchased.
