Impressions of Seville

Impressions of Seville


The 100-metre tall bell tower of Seville’s cathedral (La Giralda) has a unique means of ascent. Instead of the usual medieval staircase, winding upwards or downwards narrowly and unevenly and endlessly, there is a brick ramp. It goes up (and down) at angles, and is much to be preferred to stairs.
