In Seville’s Triana neighborhood, near the Guadalquivir River, the Castillo de San Jorge served as the headquarters of the Spanish Inquisition from 1481 to 1785. Originally a 12th-century castle, it was demolished in the 19th century to make way for a market. Today, the underground ruins of the castle house the Inquisition Museum (Museo del Castillo de San Jorge). Visitors can explore these remnants and gain insight into the historical significance and operations of the Inquisition, offering a tangible connection to this pivotal period in Spanish history.
