This visit is a must to discover the Seville of the XXI century and also to enjoy a panoramic view of all the surroundings.

After years of controversy and controversy worthy of those that occurred during the creation of the Pompidou Center in Paris, as well as work carried out in fits and starts due to technical and financial complications, the building was inaugurated in March 2011. With an initial budget multiplied by three and estimated at 33 million euros for what has officially become the Setas de Sevilla, the name given to it by the Sevillians and meaning "mushrooms". It must be admitted that the result, combining a huge wooden structure at 26 m high supported by six concrete pillars, designed by the Berlin architect Jürgen Mayer-Hermann, has finally found its place in the Sevillian urban landscape. Inside, there is the new Encarnación market, a restaurant area, a pedestrian plaza, an immersive multi-sensory room "Feeling Seville" and the Mirador, which is transformed at night with Aurora, a unique sound and light experience. The basement houses Antiquarium, the archaeological museum. Enclosed in a glass envelope, it displays the remains discovered during the pre-construction work on the site. Most of them date from the Roman period (1st to 6th century), when Seville was still called Hispalis; from the Muslim period, the remains of an Almohad house (12th and 13th centuries) remain. A short visit to the old city is recommended before leaving for Itálica.

Ce monument vraiment original est un incontournable de Séville. On nous promet un verre gratuit en payant l'entrée pour accéder à la terrasse mais il n'en est rien juste une réduction de 1€. Est il indispensable de payer pour voir la vue? Je n'en suis pas sûre il est aussi impressionnant vu d'en bas.

Structure étonnante de bas en haut. Côté place, ces champignons vous feront de l'ombre. Côté mirador vous aurez une très belle vue 360 degrés sur toute la ville.
Original et superbe.

très original, mais également très décalé par rapport à l'architecture de Séville; on ne s'y attarde pas ....

Nous n'avons pas visité l'intérieur mais uniquement fait la balade sur le toit. C'est sympa, original et çà permet de voir les édifices de Séville. Nous l'avons fait le premier jour en arrivant et çà permet de se repérer. Je le conseil.
