About Carmona

Built upon a ridge overlooking the plain of the River Corbones, Carmona has a long and storied history and a rich, vibrant culture. The Romans founded the city in the 2nd century BC, and remnants of its rule include the Necropolis, an underground burial chamber. Seville Gate leads into the town's historic quarter, dominated by an Arab fortress constructed during the Moorish occupation. Beautiful churches from the Baroque period attest to the city's more recent history. Follow the Tapas Route, marked by signs throughout the town, to sample delicious Andalusian cuisine.
