Huévar del Aljarafe. Detalle de la puerta de la Iglesia Parroquial de Ntra Sra de la Asunción
Nuestra Señora de la Asunción Church

This church, consisting of a nave and two aisles, was completed in 1510 in a simple Gothic style with a few Mudéjar elements. Three chapels were added later in the 16th and 17th centuries. The entire church is vaulted. The underground passages that run the length of the church converge on an underground crypt that might have been a Christian refuge during the Moorish rule.

The church has three naves covered by a barrel vault and supported by pillars. Current convent of the Carmelite Fathers
