Pendiente
Sevilla Street

The former Sevilla Street, with a gentle slope, runs parallel to the monumental and artistic San Pedro Street. Its perspective is unique. Overshadowed by the massive Collegiate Church, this street appears to begin at the fig orchard that surrounds this town’s main temple. At the other end of the street is the tower of the Espíritu Santo Church, behind which the sun sets every afternoon.

Osuna-Casas con balcones de la Calle San Pedro
San Pedro Street

Osuna has the best-preserved historic centre in Andalusia. In fact, it was declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1967.

Casas-Palacios Señoriales
Stately Homes-Mansions

As far as civil architecture is concerned, El Viso del Alcor has beautiful mansions built in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries, located in the historical centre of the town. 

Carmona-Iglesia de San Bartolomé
San Bartolomé Church

The San Bartolomé Church is located in Carmona’s historic centre, very close to the lower fortress, known as the Alcázar de Abajo or Puerta de Sevilla. 

Although the structure of the temple dates back to the 15th century, it was completely transformed and embellished during the Baroque period. The tower in the façade was also completed at that time.

Convento Madre de Dios
Madre de Dios Convent

The Madre de Dios Convent is located on the street of the same name, next to the former Chapter House in Carmona’s historic centre.  

It appears that the Dominican community was founded in the early 16th century.  In 1520, the building began to take shape and was gradually integrated into the urban fabric of the old medieval quarter. It reached its maximum size in the 17th century. 

Carmona-Casa Palacio de los Rueda
Palatial House of the Rueda family

One of the most interesting houses in the city. Built in the 18th century in masonry and stonework, this stately home is located on one of the historical areas of the old town.  It sits on a privileged site opposite the Santa María Church, framed by three streets, one on the front and the other two on the sides.     

Casa Lola "La de Lucena"
Casa Lola “La de Lucena”

It is undoubtedly the most picturesque building in the old town. It was built in 1905 by the flamenco singer “Lola, la de Lucena”, and later purchased by the Benjumea family. It was later occupied by a congregation of nuns and is now privately owned.
