1. Venue Overview:
The wonderful Tower of Don Fadrique, known
as the "Enchanted Tower", an example of early
civilian Gothic architecture in Seville, is located
in the Monastery of Santa Clara, a unique place
in the north of the city centre, with a long history
of tradition, culture, art and religion.
The Tower of Don Fadrique was built in 1252,
according to the inscription over the door, in the
original orchard of Don Fadrique's palace. He was the
son of Holy King Ferdinand III, conqueror of the city. It
is square shaped, with 5,40 m sides, and three floors.
The tower is made mostlyof brick, except for a few
elementswhich are carved in stone, such as the ashlars
on the ground floor, the corners on the top floor, the
door, the landings and the vaults.
The Tower of Don Fadrique is surrounded by a
wonderful garden designed by architect Juan Talavera,
who also designed the inside stairwell of the tower. It is
presided by a rectangular pond which was placed at the
tower's foot with the intention of enhancing and giving it
perspective.

2. Venues
The space consists of a rectangular garden,nearly 1,800
m2, surrounding the Tower, with myrtle shrubs, orange and
olive trees as well as acanthuses, together with a magnificent example of laurel (probably the oldest one in Seville)
and several large sculptures.
In this venue it is possible to set up theatre layouts with a
stage, banquets or cocktail receptions. The space is
versatile and very appropriate for events that can be held
outdoors, such as art exhibitions, launch of projects or
award ceremonies. Any event held here will be unique,
given the strong personality of the venue.
The maximum capacity of the venue is 150 people
outdoors. There is private parking near the facilities, and
access is adapted for people with disabilities.
