Corral del Carbón

Why go

The Corral del Carbón moves from an ornate horseshoe arch and vaulted vestibule into a plain, three-storey courtyard built for trade and lodging. That contrast is its appeal: the building shows how decoration and day-to-day commerce shared the same Nasrid setting. It adds a different side of Granada’s medieval history to palace visits.

What to look for

• The horseshoe entrance arch with plaster decoration.
• The vaulted vestibule leading into the courtyard.
• Three levels of galleries around the merchants’ courtyard.

Useful to know

• Walk through the entrance before judging the building from the street.
• Fit this compact stop into a city-centre walk near the Alcaicería.
