Salt Wharf

The Salt Wharf is a riverside space in Seville next to the Paseo de Colón, at the foot of the Isabel II Bridge. Formerly called the Barranco wharf, it was used to unload salt brought by barge from the salt flats of Cádiz, and it was the site of the Barrera ice factory. In 1992 the Monument to Tolerance, a work by the sculptor Chillida, was placed on the wharf, and in 1998 a bronze commemorative plaque twinning the Guadalquivir with the River Sella. This wharf has hosted 21 editions of the Piraguas Festival. The space is open and can be visited, with views of the river and the area around the Triana Bridge.
