Italica, located in modern-day Santiponce and at 9km from Seville, was the first Roman city founded in the Iberian Peninsula and was the birthplace of the Emperors Trajan and Hadrian. Considered the most important Roman ruins in Spain, Italica is a must-go place for the curious about History and Architecture and also for the mosaic enthusiasts.

The Roman city was founded in 206 B.C. by the General Publius Cornelius (also known for the nickname Africanus) and was a place of settlement for wounded soldiers or victorious veterans. From Seville, we will arrive at Italica in a short time. Old streets with fabulous mosaics compose this archaeological site, as well as a big aqueduct with 37km total length, and a surprisingly big Amphitheatre - the 3rd biggest in the Roman Empire. You can wander through the tunnels where gladiators would once have walked! In this tour, our guide will also tell us about the Roman Theatre, dated from I B.C. and I A. C. centuries.

Italica is such a perfect relic of the Roman Empire that HBO chose it to be the scenario of some scenes of the 7th season of the famous show “Game of Thrones”.

After the stroll in this site, we will visit the Monastery of San Isidoro del Campo, founded in 1301, a medieval fortress that hides treasures from the Mudejar, Gothic and Baroque periods. It was declared Historic-Artistic Site of National Interest in 1872.

Finally, and before we go back to Seville, we will visit San Rafael in La Pañoleta Winery, a traditional cellar, where a wine tasting is included.

It will be impossible to escape to these amazing stories, facts, and curiosities about the Roman ruins of Italica.
