Arco del Portillo
A simple medieval horseshoe arch on Calle San Fernando marks a former passage between the old Medina and walled Axerquía.
Why go
The fourteenth-century opening helped movement between two historic parts of Córdoba. Its sparse decoration makes the form of the arch itself easy to see. It is a compact street stop that becomes more meaningful when followed by Calle Cabezas or the former convent quarter.
What to look for
A horseshoe arch frames the old city passage.
The arch marks a former route between the Medina and Axerquía.
