Seville enchants

The Osuna’s Collegiate Church is a jewel of Renaissance architecture. Founded by Juan Téllez Girón, 4th Count of Ureña, it replaced the old medieval parish church. It is unclear who the architects were.

This mansion built in 1735 by the Marquises of Pilares was the residence of noble families such as the Counts of Daóiz, the Counts of Miraflores and of the poet and livestock farmer of the Generation of 27, Fernando Villalón.

The building is listed as an Asset of Cultural Interest. The style is baroque in transition to neoclassicism. It was built on an earlier Mudejar-style church that was demolished due to the damage caused by the Lisbon earthquake (1755). Its construction began in 1780 and ended in 1801. 

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.

The San Pedro Church was built in the 15th century on the site of the original Shrine to the Virgen de la Antigua. Its baroque appearance is due to later modifications. The main altar was lost to a fire on 2 December 1984. Highlights include its wonderful baroque dome.

The Shrine to San Juan Bautista is located on the eastern edge of the San Juan Hill in Coria del Río. It has a north-south orientation and looks out over the River Guadalquivir as it flows past the town.

This is the oldest church in the town. It is listed as a Site of Cultural Interest. It was built in the Mudéjar-Gothic style in the late 13th century with baroque additions. The church consists of a nave and two aisles covered by a wooden coffered ceiling. The polygonal chancel with a vaulted ceiling occupies the apse.
