Feria

Seville, beautiful and diverse

The Palace of the Marquis de la Gomera is the most exceptional in Osuna. This 18th-century building by Juan Antonio Blanco was built circa 1770.

The Santa María de La Mota Church is located within Marchena’s old Islamic citadel (Alcázar). This walled area, situated in the town’s highest point, is segregated from the rest of the city; hence, its name “La Mota”. It was built around 1356, after King Fernando IV of Castile bestowed the Señorío de Marchena upon Fernando Ponce de León on 18 December 1309.

Plaza de Santa Rosalía is a large square in the neighbourhood known as “Barrio de la Ranas”.

Presiding over the Plaza de Santa Rosalía is a wrought-iron cross on a brick pedestal. This cross has stood in the square since time immemorial, and it can be considered the Gines’ “Wayside Cross”. 

This alleyway is located in the heart of Utrera’s historical centre. In the past, it was also used as a small gateway through the walls. A cross and a scallop shell, symbols of the Way of St James, grace the entrance to the alleyway. Its whitewashed walls, full of flower pots, take us back to another era.

This Renaissance church was built in the 18th century to accommodate the order of Benedictine monks. It was the monks themselves who brought the beautiful 16th century font to the church. At the top of the twenty-metre-high bell tower, there are four bells named San Antonio, Jesús, José and María, in homage to the Holy Family.

Estepa’s Sacred Art Museum is located in the Santa María la Mayor Church. The fact sheets provide insight into the different changes the building has undergone throughout its history, be it a mosque, Gothic or Mudejar Church.
