Cascadas del Hueznar

Seville enchants

In 1931, the Republican City Council agreed to replace the cross in the Square, known as “Cruz del Gato”, with sculptures and renovate the well and basin. 

The current chapel stands on the same site as the original one, which must have been a modest single-nave Mudejar building, preceded or surrounded by porticoes, and flanked by outbuildings such as the house of the santero and the hostelry, where the people of Cazalla worshipped the Virgen del Monte at least since the mid-sixteenth century. 

This Priory Church is the epitome of Carmona’s religious architecture and the town’s largest building.
The earlier Almohad mosque was demolished in 1424 to build the Christian temple, the first phase of which was completed in 1518. The ablutions courtyard remains.

Made in 1986 by local stonemason Juan Carrero. Formed by a hexagonal base supporting a 16-sided conical trunk with a height of 1.20 metres.

This is a tribute to the men and women who dedicated themselves to the work of the palm in Castilblanco in the 50's and 60's. It was made in 1982 by Juan Lemus.

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.

This building underwent several renovations during the first half of the 18th century that proved insufficient. In the century’s middle years, the chapel was demolished and rebuilt, leading to the loss of any information about previous interventions. The construction of the new Church began in 1752 with donations from institutions and individuals. It was completed in 1758.
