Abstract
In all cultures, and in many different ways, man has searched for God, and architecture has been a fundamental element in this search. The cathedral-mosque of Córdoba is a unique example of this particular history of the search for God through architecture: first with its choice of a horizontal space on a human scale, adapted to the praying practices of the Islamic period, and then with a vertical space, symbolizing the grandeur and spirituality of the Christian period. The different religions that have been accommodated in this building in the course of its history have brought with them different conceptions of space and different liturgies. These needs, peculiar to each form of worship for the propagation of the faith, imply different acoustic conditions for the particular space. The aim of this study is to look at the sonic characteristics of the space and analyze the evolution of its acoustic characteristics and their adaptation to the different liturgical needs of each period.
