Alfonso X the WiseThe most enlightened court in EuropeAfter the entry of King Ferdinand III into Seville and during the reign of the so-called “wise king” Alfonso X of Castile, the court was established in Seville and lived, under this sensitive, intellectual king, one of the most brilliant epochs of the European Middle Ages. Alfonso surrounded himself with philosophers, jurists, musicians, artists and mathematicians who gave his reign a creative drive that is remembered even today. |
