The University of Córdoba Publishing Service, in collaboration with the Provincial Council, has published the book "La maternidad en los textos gnósticos cristianos" with which its author Saray García Muñiz won the XIII Leonor de Guzmán Award, organized by the Chair of Women's Studies of the same name.

“El antiguo Palacio Episcopal de Córdoba. Transformaciones de usos y espacios,” a new book from the University of Córdoba Publications Service

The former Episcopal Palace of Córdoba appears to be located on top of a Visigothic palace.

The Palace also served as a residence for many Spanish kings and their retinues. In the 20th century, the bishop's residence was moved to the San Pelagio Seminary, on Amador de los Ríos street.
