Granada

Granada

The splendour of Granada was born from the decline of Cordoba. After the Reconquest of 1236, most of the population from Cordoba came to take refuge in Granada where Mohamed ibn Ahmar founds the Nasride dynasty, vassal of the King Ferdinand III. From 1238 to 1492, the city will know as well an amazing prosperity in the economic plan as artistic. The internal dissensions will facilitate then the task of Catholic Kings who will be made give the keys of the city by Boabdil on January 2 1492. But the true decline was to start only after the expulsion of Morisques into 1609.
