From monasteries to royal reading rooms, get lost within these majestic libraries
The maps and documents pertaining to the Spanish colonization of the New World are housed within Seville’s Archivo de Indias (Archive of the Indies). Established in 1785, the Archive was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site just over a hundred years later. Visitors can access the permanent collection, view maps and letters, and peruse temporary exhibits on their own, free of charge.
