About Carmona

Carmona stands on a ridge above the plain east of Seville, with a Roman necropolis, an amphitheatre and the Alcázar of the Seville Gate guarding the old town. The Cordoba Gate, the church of Santa María and the market square show layers of Roman, Moorish and Christian rule. Seville is half an hour away, and Écija lies further east. Spring and autumn are the best months; summer is very hot, while winter is mild and often sunny.
