Granada's Architecture, Period by Period
Nasrid stucco, Moorish civic halls, and the churches and mansions raised after 1492, all in one architectural timeline.
This page tracks Granada's architecture chronologically: Nasrid palace halls and civic buildings first, then the Renaissance and Baroque work added after the 1492 conquest. Many of these buildings are still in use today as boutique hotels, restaurants and bars, alongside the museums and walking tours that unpack each period.
