Birth and Origin
At the beginning of the 8th century, the Iberian Peninsula was ruled by the Visigoths, who had migrated from Italy to Spain in the 5th century and had already converted to Christianity from paganism. However, their rule came to an end in 711, when the Umayyad Dynasty conquered almost the entirety of Iberia. Yet by the middle of the century, the Umayyads themselves fell victim to a revolution in their homeland, with the last remaining Prince, Abd al-Rahman I, being forced to flee to Iberia. The Prince initiated the construction of this mosque in 785-786, as a foundational building of his new Kingdom, the Emirate of Cordoba. His successors expanded the building several times to accommodate the ever-growing number of worshippers, and largely followed the aesthetic of the original 8th-century building, resulting in a harmonic and consistent aesthetic within its Islamic parts.
