Recreation of Cordoba through the history of women

For yet another year, Casa Árabe is cooperating on the programming of activities by the Cordoba Teachers’ Center (CEP), run by the Territorial Delegation for Culture of the Autonomous Regional Government of Andalusia. Tours on the dates of March 27 and April 3, 10 and 24.

The tours, guided by Professor Inmaculada Serrano, interpret Cordoba’s heritage from a gender-based perspective. Despite the lack of women in most historical sources, their presence is essential to construct and understand our city’s history. Through several different tours, we will get a closer look at manorial homes, old palaces, museums, courtyards, former hospitals and schools and countless city streets and squares which make up a cultural treasure trove in our Cordovan cultural heritage.

There will be four different gender-based tours which attempt to provide a more complete history of Cordoba across the centuries by describing the indisputable contributions made by women in every sphere of life from the first century to the modern day.
