What to expect

  1. Calle Comercio
    Pass by
    You are now walking the calle comercio. And with such a name and the number of shops that go on in front of you, you understand that you are on the most shopping street in Toledo.
  2. Mosque of Christ of the Light
    Pass by
    At the bottom of the Rue des Carmelites you arrive opposite the small mosque of Cristo de la Luz. Churches, Synagogues Mosques, you better understand why Toledo, like Cordoba, is nicknamed the city of three cultures.
  3. Pass by
    Yes, another church, sorry, there are really many in Toledo, you will have noticed! It is called the Santiago del Arrabal Church, translated into French by Santiago del Faubourgs.
  4. Puerta de Bisagra
    Pass by
    Toledo keeps indelible marks from its defensive past. A city so coveted must of course protect itself from external attacks. Its medieval wall is living proof of this with its incredible monumental gates.
  5. Puerta del Sol
    Pass by
    Now you stand in front of a monumental new gate. Yes, when walls surround a city, it takes several entrances otherwise it becomes complicated.
  6. Mirador del Paseo del Transito
    Pass by
    Well, I grant you, it’s going up a bit, but what a view! The paseo del mirador has been specially designed above the Congress Centre to allow you to have splendid panoramic views of the surroundings.
  7. Pass by
    Now you are at the foot of the city, in front of the beautiful Alcantara gate. It dates from the 10th century and is of Umayyad origin. Together with the Bab al-Mardum Mosque, better known today as the Mosque of Christ of Light, it is the only Umayyad remains in Toledo.
  8. Castillo de San Servando
    Pass by
    The Alcantara bridge also allows you to have a very nice view of the castle of San Servando that rises on the other side. It was originally built on the ruins of an Arab castle and was intended to serve as a monastery in honor of Saints Servando and Germano.
  9. Pass by
    Arriving at Zocodover Square, you quickly realize that you have just reached the nerve centre of the city. This is where the heart of Toledo has been beating for centuries. Part of the square dates from the 16th century and was built during the reign of Philip II of Spain.
  10. Alcazar de Toledo
    Pass by
    It is huge and overlooks the city, imposing and framed by its 4 pointed towers, here is the famous Alcazar of Toledo. Alcazar means fortified Arab palace. You may be familiar with the one in Seville.
  11. Toledo
    Pass by
    You saw it at every turn. It encompasses the city and envelops it in its green waters, here, of course, is the Rising Star of the region, the Tagus!
  12. Toledo
    Pass by
    Since we pass the church of los Santos Justo y Pastor which saw the birth of one of the most famous legends of Toledo, and we are in the city that forges the best blades in the world, I take this opportunity to tell you a little story of cape and sword.
  13. Pass by
    Here you are in the heart of Toledo, in the Ayuntamiento Square, that is, in the Town Hall Square. You have, on one side, the City Inn, so you guessed it in the name of the square, and on the other, the beautiful Cathedral of St. Mary of Toledo.
  14. Pass by
    You now pass the House-Museum of the Greco. The painter did not really live in this house, his being located a little further away, but it is here that most of his works painted in Toledo are exhibited in a period house that allows to imagine the way the painter lived.
  15. Mirador del Paseo del Transito
    Pass by
    Walking through this beautiful little park, well flowered and with a memorial to the painter El Greco, allows you to have this magnificent view of the river and the mountains of Toledo.
  16. Pass by
    The exit of the gardens offers you the pretty facade of the Synagogue of Transito. Do not be fooled by its outward sobriety!
  17. Synagogue Of Saint Mary The White
    Pass by
    Also in the old Juderia of Toledo, this time you are facing the Synagogue of St. Mary the White, one of the oldest synagogues in Spain.
  18. Monasterio de San Juan de los Reyes
    Pass by
    Arriving in front of the imposing facade of the monastery of San Juan de los Reyes, you immediately understand that this is serious! And even if from the outside you don’t see much, you know that the inside must lean towards the grandiose!
  19. Pass by
    us a note on Cambron's door that you pass on your left. It is one of the oldest in the city and its origins certainly date back to the time of the Visigoth wall.
  20. Real Colegio de Doncellas Nobles
    Pass by
    You arrive at Cardinal Siliceo Square, opposite the magnificent Royal College of the Noble Ladies. And you're lucky, it's recently been converted to be open to the public.
  21. Pass by
    You arrive in front of the Church of San Román, which is probably the most striking example of this Mudéjare architecture so typical of Spain.
  22. Pass by
    Another church, another style. This is the Baroque Jesuit church of San Ildefonso. You see at the top in the niche between the two towers, the statue of San Ignacio de Loyola, the saint founder of the Jesuit order.
  23. Toledo
    Pass by
    Arriving in front of the church of St. Vincent, I would like to draw your attention to the alley on his left. You see it was closed by gates. It is one of the stolen streets of Toledo.
  24. Pass by
    Look up at the great bell tower that rises before you. This is one of the finest examples of Mudejar art in Toledo.
