Torre del Cáñamo

Cañamo Tower is part of the identity of the town of La Rinconada and its industrial heritage. The building has appeared on the posters of La Rinconada’s feasts. The locals recognise the structure easily as it is part of the town’s skyline. 

Torre de los Herberos
Herberos Tower

Almohad watchtower integrated into Seville’s defences. It was built on the tell of the Iberian-Roman city of Orippo. Its foundations are made with ashlars taken from Roman ruins.

Brenes-Torre Chimenea Industrial
Smokestack Tower

Brenes is a Sevillian municipality very close to the capital. Its cuisine is very well known, in particular migas, snails and confectionery. The most representative buildings are the Mudejar-style Inmaculda Concepción Church and the Shrine to San Sebastian, the seat of the Confraternity of the Captive.

Brenes-Torre del Molino de la Hacienda de San Sebastián
Mill Tower at Hacienda de San Sebastián

The Torre del Molino at Hacienda de San Sebastián was built in the late 19th century. Only the façade of old Hacienda de San Sebastián and one of the side towers remain today. The architecture is typical of 19th-century Andalusian haciendas. It is now privately owned and is partially in ruins.

Ronda de la Alcazaba Recinto Amurallado
Ronda de la Alcazaba. Walled compound

The Muslim town of “Marssen´Ah” enjoyed significant cultural and urban growth. The complex structure of the multiple walled compounds that composed Marchena were consistent with the paradigm of Hispanic-Muslim cities. The main walled-enclosure surrounded the core area of the town, the Medina. The Alcazaba protected the seat of the political and military power.
