Despite how close Seville is, in Camas there’s plenty of monuments to satisfy your inner sightseer. One example of this is the Cortijo de Gambogaz Tower, which is part of a 19th century cortijo, or rural estate, owned by the Queipo de Llano family since the Civil War. This monument, declared a Site of Cultural Interest, boasts an exquisite Gothic-Mudéjar style that’s sure to take your breath away. Make sure you look out for the remains of a cloister of the same style, which you’ll find in the area.
The church of Nuestra Señora de Gracia, on the other hand, is a beautiful typically Andalusian church, with its whitewashed walls and brick bell tower. Be sure to check out the inside too, where you’ll find interesting decorative elements. The impressive main altarpiece is neoclassical in style, but there are many other sculptures and details that are sure to grab your attention.
