«La Mezquita-Catedral de Córdoba» is the historical guide by Manuel Nieto Cumplido, published by Escudo De Oro in paperback (96 pages, in Spanish).
It traces the history of the Cordoban monument from its Islamic stage as a great congregational mosque to its conversion into a Christian cathedral: its origin in the caliphal period beside the Guadalquivir, its designation as a World Heritage Site in 1984, and the urban surroundings, with the Episcopal Palace, the Conciliar Seminary of San Pelagio and the Triumph of San Rafael, among other buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries.
A large-format work profusely illustrated in color, published in its eighth edition. The text places the mosque as the origin of Hispano-Muslim architecture on the peninsula and as the living core of the Cathedral quarter.
Suitable for travelers and readers interested in the history and art of Córdoba who want a documented and visual overview of the monumental complex.
