UNESCO World Heritage Centre: Historic Centre of Cordoba

UNESCO World Heritage record for Cordoba, used as a site-specific anchor for medieval Islamic and later Christian architectural history.

Notes

UNESCO's public record for the Historic Centre of Cordoba gives a site-specific anchor for Córdoba's medieval Islamic and later Christian architectural history. It identifies the city's period of expansion after the eighth-century Moorish conquest and the later transformation of the Great Mosque into a cathedral.

Why this source matters

MoorOfUS uses this source to keep architecture claims tied to a named site and a public heritage record. It supports discussion of buildings, urban memory, and layered use over time.

Use with caution

The UNESCO description is not a genealogy source and should not be used to establish private ancestry, modern nationality, or personal status. It anchors a place and its heritage context.
