Semana Santa Estepa

Seville enchants

The 30-hectare La Muela Park is located to the east of the town, at the foot of one of the most significant archaeological sites in the region known as La Tablada. The Park dates back to the early 1980s. More specifically, in 1983, when various interventions were carried out to prepare the site for public use, the first trees were planted, and the paths were laid. 

The Museum of Carmona’s Archaeological Complex was opened in 1885. It was one of the first Spanish museums directly linked to an archaeological site: Carmona’s Necropolis.

Currently, the Archaeological Area within the Archaeological Site of Carmona comprises, among other things, two remarkable built-up areas from Roman times (between 1st and 2nd centuries). Firstly, the Necropolis, considered one of the largest and best-preserved Roman funeral sites in the Iberian Peninsula, and secondly, the Amphitheatre, a venue used for entertainment.

The Archaeological and Ethnographic Museum of La Puebla de Cazalla is located at the Hacienda la Fuenlonguilla. It used to be a traditional olive oil mill that was operational between the 19th and 20th centuries. Its floor plan is practically square with two differentiated areas.

This 18th-century building was the communal granary until the second half of this century. It was also home to the municipal administrative offices. Today, it is the Town Hall, and visitors can admire the beautiful groin vaults, typical of the colonial-baroque style.

The Plaza de la Alameda, located in the southwest end of the town, is 130 metres long. Various streets - Extremadura, Real and Mimbre- and the Plaza del Palacio end in this square. It has a perimeter of about 400 metres and covers approximately 0.5 hectares.

The theatre is just a stone's throw from the Italica Archaeological Site and was built during the time of Augustus and restored in 2014. It was built in three stages between 30 and 37 A.D. Later, during the 60's and 80's A.D., major renovations were made to the semicircular façade and the stage.
