The Setas de Sevilla, also known as the Mushrooms of Seville, is a significant landmark in the old quarter of Seville, Spain. This large wooden structure is located at La Encarnación square and is a notable attraction for tourists visiting the city. The structure was designed by German architect Jürgen Mayer and was completed in April 2011. It is approximately 150 by 70 metres in size and stands at an approximate height of 26 metres.

Facilities at Setas de Sevilla

The Setas de Sevilla is not just a landmark, but also a hub of activity. It houses a traditional market, several restaurants, a performance square, and an archaeological museum. One of its most popular features is the 'rooftop' terrace, which offers a panoramic view of Seville's old city. This makes it a great spot for tourists to explore, dine, shop, and soak in the city's history and culture.

Levels of Setas de Sevilla

The Setas de Sevilla is organized into four levels, each offering a unique experience. The underground level, known as Level 0, houses the Antiquarium, a museum displaying Roman and Moorish remains discovered on site. Level 1, at street level, is home to the Central Market. The roof of Level 1 serves as an open-air public plaza, shaded by the wooden parasols above and designed for public events. Levels 2 and 3 comprise the panoramic terraces, which include a restaurant and offer a stunning view of the city centre.

  • Apollo's Insights AI-Generated

    The Mushrooms of Seville, also known as Metropol Parasol or Las Setas de Sevilla, is a modern architectural marvel in the heart of Seville. This unique wooden structure, resembling giant mushrooms, offers visitors a blend of history and contemporary design. The site features Roman and Moorish ruins in the basement level, which can be viewed through glass floors. Visitors appreciate the panoramic views of Seville from the upper levels, especially during sunset. The structure's design is polarizing, with some finding it an intriguing addition to Seville's skyline, while others consider it out of place among the city's traditional architecture. The rooftop walkway provides a different perspective of the city, though some visitors mention that the experience can be brief. Overall, it's an interesting stop for those interested in modern architecture and cityscape views, but may not appeal to all tastes.
