Monday Morning Photo - Palacio de la Merced, Cordoba

Once one of the most important buildings in Córdoba, Palacio de la Merced was founded in XIII century as a  Mercedarian monastery. When the order was dissolved it became an orphanage then in the 1970s a Provincial Government seat. The Baroque portal is in the middle of the enormous frontage, the cloisters and monastery church remain and services are still held there today.

Monday Morning Photo - Castillo del Moral, Lucena

Usually when you think of a castle it's on high ground - not the Castillo del Moral in Lucena, it's slap-bang in the middle of town! It's origins are said to date from the 11th and 12th century when it was primarily a Jewish town.






More to come on Lucena and my recent blogtrip there soon.
