Écija-Iglesia de los Descalzos
Concepción Church (Los Descalzos)

This church is considered one of the most significant Baroque buildings in the province of Seville and a jewel of Ecijan Baroque. The Limpia Concepción de Nuestra Señora Church (Los Descalzos) was renovated between 2006 and 2009, under the “Baroque Andalusia” programme of the Andalusian Government. The church had remained closed for 30 years until then.

Iglesia Parroquial San Cristóbal Mártir

From the road connecting Burguillos with Seville, Calle Real climbs up a hill through the centre of the town. San Cristóbal Mártir Parish Church stands at the highest point of the town. This Mudéjar-style church has a baroque-style bell gable. San Cristóbal Mártir Parish Church is dedicated to Saint Christopher the Martyr, one of the town’s patron saints.

St Mary Magdalene Parish Mother Church

A large ancient temple whose history is essentially undocumented. It was extensively renovated in baroque-style between 1733 and 1765.

In the 20th century, during the violent events in 1936, the Church suffered significant damages due to an arson attack and had to be rebuilt later.

Marchena- Iglesia de San Miguel
San Miguel Church

The temple is somewhat removed from the town’s walled historic quarters. When it was built in the 15th century, it was meant to be a shrine to the Archangel St Michael.

Although it has a core area that is Mudejar, it has undergone multiple renovations, especially in the 18th century, when the choir’s side chapels were added.

Utrera. Portada de la Iglesia de Santiago el Mayor
Santiago el Mayor Church

Santiago is profoundly linked to Utrera’s origin as a city. The original church that stood opposite the Castle was the heart of present-day Utrera. According to the chronicles, the primitive church of Santiago was looted in the second half of the 14th century by Mohamed V of Granada.
