Places to see in ( Andalusia - Spain ) Plaza del Triunfo

The Plaza del Triunfo in the Spanish city of Seville is located in the center of a group of buildings declared a World Heritage Site in 1987 : the Archivo General de Indias , the Reales Alcázares in Seville and the Seville Cathedral .

The name of this square is due to a baroque style temple located next to the Archivo de Indias, called Templete del Triunfo de Nuestra Señora del Patrocinio, with an image of the Virgin and Child inside, and built in 1756 .

That area was incorporated to the city during the time of the kingdom Taifa of Seville. During the Almohad dominion a part of the lands that comprised the place were incorporated to the Alcázar. At the beginning of the construction of the Cathedral, in the fifteenth century this square was known as the Plaza de los Cantos because it was the place of gathering the songs and ashlars for the construction of the temple that was running throughout this century . Also during the centuries later was denominated like place of the Hospital of the King.

In the 18th century , the arches of Santa Marta and the Casa de la Contratacion were demolished and the monument of Triunfo was built. At the beginning of the 20th century the monument to the Immaculate is placed and the square is landscaped.
