Great Mosque of Cordoba Spain Postcard

Great Mosque of Cordoba Spain Postcard

The Great Mosque of Córdoba, also known as La Mezquita, is one of the most stunning examples of Islamic architecture in Europe and a symbol of the cultural fusion between Islamic, Christian, and Spanish influences. Located in Córdoba, Spain, this magnificent structure was originally built as a mosque in 785 CE by the Umayyad ruler Abd al-Rahman I when the region was under Muslim rule. Over the centuries, the mosque was expanded by successive caliphs, growing into one of the most grand and sophisticated religious sites of the Islamic world. Its most famous feature is the vast hypostyle hall, filled with over 850 red-and-white horseshoe arches that create a mesmerising sense of depth and rhythm. The intricate mihrab (prayer niche), adorned with exquisite gold mosaics and Kufic inscriptions, stands as a masterpiece of Islamic artistry. Following the Reconquista in 1236, when Christian forces led by King Ferdinand III of Castile reclaimed Córdoba, the mosque was converted into a Catholic cathedral. Instead of demolishing the structure, the Spanish built a Renaissance-style cathedral nave in the centre of the mosque, creating a striking architectural contrast between Moorish and Christian styles. Today, the Great Mosque of Córdoba is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and remains one of Spain’s most visited landmarks. It serves as a testament to the historical coexistence and conflicts between Islamic and Christian civilisations in mediaeval Spain. Walking through its grand arches and ornate halls, visitors can experience the unique blend of cultures that shaped the Iberian Peninsula’s rich history.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for. I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording. Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
