Granada Cathedral and the Royal Chapel tickets
Treat these neighboring buildings as two visits with separate entrances and admission arrangements. Leave time between them to walk around the cathedral block and find the correct queue. Inside the cathedral, look upwards as well as along the nave; in the chapel, give yourself time to examine the royal tombs. Check each official site for visitor access, since services can affect how you organize the visit.

The best time to visit
Check both buildings' opening information before choosing the order. An early visit gives you more flexibility if one entrance has a queue. Avoid scheduling the second visit too tightly, particularly if you intend to follow the audio guides.
How to get to Granada Cathedral and the Royal Chapel
Use the cathedral stop area on Gran Vía, then allow about 5 minutes through the adjoining streets. The cathedral and Royal Chapel have different entrances. Follow each building's visitor signs rather than assuming the first queue covers both.
Tips for your visit
- Save both admission confirmations separately so you can present the correct one at each entrance.
- Check photography rules before taking out your camera, particularly inside the Royal Chapel.
- Use the audio guides selectively if you have limited time, leaving room to look closely at the spaces and objects described.

Does one ticket cover both buildings?
Tickets are sold separately for the cathedral and Royal Chapel. Check each confirmation carefully and do not assume that admission to one includes the other.
Do I enter the Royal Chapel through the cathedral?
The chapel has its own visitor entrance. Follow the signs around the adjoining streets and allow a few minutes to find it between visits.
Can I take photographs inside?
Check the rules at each entrance and follow staff instructions. Do not assume that permission in the cathedral also applies in the Royal Chapel.
Can religious services affect my visit?
Yes. Check each official site's visitor information before setting out, and respect any areas reserved for worship or temporarily closed to visitors.
