ABOUT SEVILLE

Seville is one of the most important cities in southern Europe. Its geostrategic location halfway between Africa and the Mediterranean and excellently connected by air, sea and land to Europe, make it a city that is difficult to compare. Its air connections, the high-capacity highways that connect it with the capital of Spain and the Costa del Sol, the high-speed rail lines and its modern airport are important arguments for the development of congresses.

History

Although the founding of Seville is attributed to Hercules, the Tartessos (specifically the Turdetan people) are believed to have been founded around the 9th century BC. Later it is occupied by Phoenicians and Carthaginians, although it is the Romans who end up settling after arriving in 206 BC. C. under the orders of General Escipión. It was the Muslims who gave it the name Ishbiliya, which later became Shbiya to end up being what it is now known as, Seville. The discovery of the New World in 1492 was very significant for the city, which would become the European port of departure for America and one of the most populous cities in Europe.

In Seville, in addition to visiting its magnificent monumental and artistic heritage, you can enjoy its cultural offer and its traditions.
