Summary

[edit]
Description

The Plaza de las Tendillas is located in the city of Córdoba ( Spain ), in the vicinity of the ancient Roman forum of the city of Córdoba. Its name comes from the small shops that housed the Order of Calatrava since the 14TH century . The current dimensions of the square were created after the demolition of the Hotel Suizo in 1923, joining the main commercial avenues such as Cruz Conde , Claudio Marcelo and Gondomar streets, and the construction of most of the current buildings occurred in that decade. The square has hosted a Christmas market since 2014 [and is famous for the celebration of the twelve New Year 's Eve grapes following the square's "flamenco clock", which instead of chiming, strikes the hours with the sound of a guitar .

In the current Plaza de las Tendillas, around the 14TH century , there were the houses of the commanders of the Order of Calatrava , who had helped during the Conquest of Córdoba and were rewarded with this space, as well as different small shops, an area whose name quickly became the Tendillas de Calatrava, a name by which it has remained until today. The Calatrava houses were demolished in 1860 for the construction of the Hotel Suizo.[Wikipedia]
