Walk into the Royal Tobacco Factory, a huge neoclassical landmark that now doubles as a university building. Explore its grand halls, stairways and courtyards at your own pace, free of charge.
Full description
The Royal Tobacco Factory is a monumental neoclassical building that once housed one of Europe's earliest large industrial operations and now serves as offices and teaching space for the University of Seville. Visitors can enter freely, passing through a white main entrance into a maze of halls, foyers and stairways with maps posted to help find the way.
Reviewers highlight the scale of the stone building and its historic character, and mention that the guided tour is offered only in Spanish. It sits within easy walking distance of the old town and suits a short visit of about 20 minutes.

Gorgeous building with a lot of history. Free to visit. There is a guided tour available which I had wanted to do but it is only available in Spanish.
