La recuperación del Alcázar de Sevilla. Un elemento de tensión entre los reyes católicos y la ciudad de Sevilla

The restoration of the Alcázar de Sevilla during the reign of the Catholic Kings was not merely a architectural endeavor but a complex process fraught with tensions and conflicts. This study reveals that the project sparked significant disputes between the monarchy and the town council of Seville, particularly concerning the rights and prerogatives associated with the royal palace. These conflicts extended to critical aspects of Sevillian society, such as water administration and tax distribution, highlighting the intricate interplay between royal authority and local governance. The research demonstrates how palace officials acted as key intermediaries, navigating these tensions while shaping the relationship between the monarchy and the city.
