La otra orilla
No hay otra orilla, no,
igual que no sabe el corazón
latir distinto.
Es una, una sola,
un solo río circular,
océano que late abierto, en redondo,
buscándose, buscándote, alma
o mente, vida, corazón,
con la fuerza que pone la piel
en el abrazo, que emplea tembloroso
el animal humano para recogerse entero,
para girarse y mirar, para encontrarse
- Adanes cansados y Evas - al amor cálido,
materno, de aquella cueva original
que espera siempre y que acoge.
Y de fondo, mar de fondo,
la misma costa, el mismo sol
mirándose de sur a norte,
la misma luz.
Carlos Wamba Dougoud (Sevilla 2015)

San Salvador (in Sevilla)
Reconstruction drawing Abderrahman II mosque (San Salvador)

The baroque collegiate church of San Salvador was built on the site a a former mosque, which was
constructed in the first half of the 9th century by Ibn Adabbas, under the emir Abderrahman II. During
the recent excavation and restoration works a column was found.

May Allah have pity with Abderrahmen b. Al Hakam, the righteous emir,
well guided by Allah, who ordered the construction of this mosque, under
direction of Umar b. Adabbás, judge of Sevilla, in the year 824 (11.3.829 -
27.2.830). This was written by Abad al-Barr b Harún.

Possibly the mosque was built on a former Roman temple, which may have been the first cathedral of
Sevilla. When Fernando el Santo conquered Sevilla (1248) he changed the mosque into a christian
church. Traces of the mosque are the ablution fountain, the Patio de los Naranjas and the basic structure
of the tower.
