Additional Information

As the daylight fades, Toledo undergoes a transformation, settling into a serene calmness. The pathways, alleys, and squares of the city take on a mystical air, unveiling its true nature: a respite from the clatter of time. This is an excellent time to explore its less-known aspects and fall in love with our town. Do not miss out on experiencing this alternate Toledo: the night-time version.

The dimly lit and silent convent neighborhood becomes an appropriate backdrop to unearth the most astonishing secrets and stories.

Experience what the Imperial Toledo was like with its light and darkness. We will discuss the Holy Inquisition and its hidden prison, civic structures and hospitals, executions, plagues and ancient relics… basically, the life and death in the Toledo of Renaissance and Baroque periods. Needless to say, we also portray the city through the perspective of the 19th century romantics.

Unquestionably, this is the superior way to explore Toledo after dark.

Location
Plaza de Zocodover
In the center of the square, it is very easy to find us since we carry some GREEN UMBRELLAS.
