Alhambra Wheelchair Access and Tickets for People with Disabilities

Enjoy a special day at the Alhambra with a guided tour
Alhambra and Nasrid Palaces: discover the wonders of the Alhambra with this all-inclusive tour: the Nasrid Palaces, the Generalife, the Alcazaba, and more.
Alhambra + Albaicín + Sacromonte: a perfect combination of a guided tour of the Alhambra in the morning and a guided tour of the Albaicin and Sacromonte in the afternoon.The Patronato of the Alhambra is gradually implementing measures to allow individuals with reduced mobility (in wheelchairs) to access approximately 70% of the monument.
It is estimated that individuals in wheelchair may require assistance from others to access at least 30% of the Alhambra.
The remaining 10-20% will remain permanently inaccessible due to features such as stairs, abrupt level changes, and other architectural barriers in those parts of the Alhambra.
Sadly, this encompasses some of the most captivating sections of the monument, such as the Alcazaba and the interior of Nasrid palaces.
You can consult this map to determine which areas of the Alhambra are not accessible for individuals with disabilities.

Opinions about Alhambra for People with Disabilities
Disabled people should get in for free
Disabled individuals should be granted free admission, as is common in many European countries.
Anyone with a disability of 33% or more should receive free entry, along with one accompanying person.
Additionally, long-term unemployed individuals, those under 18, and retired people should also be admitted for free.
Disability is not the same as being in a wheelchair
When stating that only part of the enclosure is accessible to people with disabilities, it should be clearly specified that the limitation applies to wheelchair users, not to all people with disabilities.
Disability is a broad term that can affect different parts of the body or cognitive functions, not only mobility.
Equating disability solely with wheelchair use reflects a limited understanding and overlooks the diversity within the disabled community. Language should reflect this nuance to avoid reinforcing misconceptions.
Most places with no wheelchair access
Accessibility in the Alhambra needs a lot of improvements; most places are uneven o with the stairs with no wheelchair access. Disappointing experience. I was not allowed enter any of the palaces. Also customer service has to be improved. Regarding prices: I think it should be free, in Italy I didn't have to pay any entry at all.
