Everything you should know before you book
Granada Cathedral is one of Spain's great Renaissance churches, its soaring white rotunda begun on the orders of the Catholic Monarchs after the 1492 reconquest. Beside it, the Royal Chapel (Capilla Real) holds the tombs of Isabella and Ferdinand themselves, with their lead coffins in the crypt and a sacristy of royal treasures above.
A guide ties the two buildings to the pivotal year 1492. Self-guided entry is possible, but the Royal Chapel's history is the whole point and easy to miss without context. Guided and private tours cover both monuments together, and several historic-centre walking tours fold the cathedral and chapel into a wider loop of the old town.
Frequently asked questions
Are the Cathedral and Royal Chapel the same building?
No — they sit side by side but are separate monuments with separate entrances. The Royal Chapel holds the tombs of the Catholic Monarchs; the Cathedral is the larger Renaissance church next door.
Is a guide necessary?
You can enter both unguided, but the Royal Chapel's significance — the resting place of Isabella and Ferdinand — is best understood with a guide who explains the 1492 context.
How long do you need?
Allow about 90 minutes for both together. Historic-centre walking tours that include them run two to three hours with the surrounding old town.
