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.

Nice town on the way to Cordoba from Sevilla. On monday is free entrance to a Alcazar de la Puerta de Sevilla.

Very historical Your love it!

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.

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.

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.

Good stop off for a quick photo

Beautiful entrance to an even more beautiful city.

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.

The site itself is interesting, well thought out, and free of charge. The downside is that Carmona allows/tolerates shady individuals to act as parking officials (they wear vests, have bogus ID cards, and have "tickets" to put on cars) when parking is free. If you reject them, they hang around your vehicle as if they are going to do something to it.

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😇

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!

A bit of a walk from the centre. But worth it. A big site with lots to see. Go down the ladder if you’re feeling brave. Very good interpretation boards as well. Directly opposite the amphitheater, which was closed but from the roof of the museum you can see it quite well.

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.

An interesting roman necropolis on the outer edge of town

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.

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.

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

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.

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

Good place to stop-off for lunch and enjoy the views

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.

(Translated by Google) One of the most striking temples in this city that breathes history through each of its pores. Your visit is highly recommended. The exterior looks like a large fortified enclosure. Impress. (Original) Uno de los templos más llamativos en esta ciudad que respira historia por cada uno de sus poros. Muy recomendable su visita. El exterior parece un gran recinto fortificado. Impresiona.

Voor een klein bedrag toegang tot en wandeling door en over het Alcázar. Aardige mevrouw die ons meer suggesties gaf dan we op één dag konden doen. Want: Carmona is dan wel geen Sevilla, er is veel wat de moeite waard is om bekeken te worden ( Iglesia Santa Maria, Palacio del Marques de las Torres, met daarin het Museo de la Ciudad en de Parador: om maar een paar te noemen). Niet een stad waar je een bruisend uitgaansleven moet verwachten, wel een - nog weinig ontdekte - parel in Andalusië. (Translated by Google) For a small fee you can enter and walk through and over the Alcázar. Nice lady who gave us more suggestions than we could do in one day. Because: Carmona may not be Seville, but there is a lot worth seeing (Iglesia Santa Maria, Palacio del Marques de las Torres, containing the Museo de la Ciudad and the Parador: just to name a few ). Not a city where you should expect a vibrant nightlife, but a little-discovered pearl in Andalusia.

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 friendly and efficient in terms of the information they provide. I was surprised by the city of Carmona, the cleanliness of its historic area, how enormous the historic part of the city is, that the height of the new buildings is maintained, the care taken in the restoration of facades, the informative ceramics, the homogeneity of the floors, the forge, the monuments beautifully restored and clearly marking the ancientness of the restored. To make a point, I would ask for the elimination of road traffic in the historic part. (Original) Muy amables y eficaces en cuanto a la información que aportan. Me ha sorprendido la ciudad de Carmona, la limpieza de su zona histórica, lo enorme que es la parte histórica de la ciudad, que se mantenga la altura de los edificios nuevos, el cuidado en las restauraciones de fachadas, las cerámicas informativas, la homogeneidad de los de suelos, la forja, los monumentos restaurados con primor y marcando claramente lo antiguo de lo restaurado. Por poner una pega pediría la eliminación de tráfico rodado en la parte histórica.

(Translated by Google) Guided tours at 11. A guide accompanies you and explains everything for two and a half hours. Very cheap and quality, you only pay for the tickets for what you visit. About 6 euros without discounts and about 3 euros with discounts (retirees,...). In the end very happy with the experience. (Original) Visitas guiadas a las 11. Un guía te acompaña y explica todo durante dos horas y media. Muy barato y de calidad, solo pagas las entradas de lo que se visita.

(Translated by Google) We took a free guided tour organized by the Tourist Office. We only had to pay the entrance to the Convent of the Poor Clares and the Archaeological Museum. We were a large group of friends and we were all delighted with Almudena, the guide, who masterfully explained the history that Carmona hides for three hours. He made our visit very enjoyable. Their explanations about certain pieces exhibited in the museum were essential to understand and enjoy what we were seeing much better. I think it is a great option for the Tourist Office to carry out these guided tours. My thanks to Almudena for his good work. (Original) Hicimos una visita guiada gratuita organizada por la Oficina de Turismo. Solo tuvimos que pagar la entrada al Convento de las Clarisas y al Museo Arqueólogico. Éramos un grupo de amigos numeroso y todos quedamos encantados con Almudena la guía, que fue desgranando durante tres horas con gran maestría la historia que esconde Carmona. Nos hizo la visita muy amena. Sus explicaciones sobre determinadas piezas expuestas en el museo fueron fundamentales para entender y disfrutar mucho mejor lo que estábamos viendo. Creo que es una opción estupenda que la Oficina de Turismo realice estas visitas guiadas. Mi agradecimiento a Almudena por su buen hacer.

El museo en sí está bien. Te haces una idea de devenir de la historia de la ciudad. Recomendable. A mejorar: aire acondicionado en sus estancias, sirr todo en la parte noble del palacio, planta alta, y que las pantallas explicativas las enciendan (Translated by Google) The museum itself is fine. You get an idea of ​​the history of the city. Recommendable. To improve: air conditioning in their rooms, sirr everything in the noble part of the palace, upper floor, and that the explanatory screens turn them on

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.

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.

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

Pretty good actually for such a small city

Very cool museum

Really nice museum with some great exhibits. Does a wonderful job of showing the periods that the region went through. Very educational.

Nice art of local artesans. Could use some more exhibited items and english translations.

(Translated by Google) Shame on the posters they put up in the streets, it is forbidden to feed stray cats and dogs, so let them starve, right?

(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) Little help, the most malage receptionist and with less sympathy that I have seen in front of the public.

(Original) Poca ayuda, el recepcionista mas malage y con menos simpatía que he visto cara al publico. Si no llevas lo que te hace falta o no sabes que es no esperes que te ayude.

(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.
