Iglesia Conventual de San Francisco
San Francisco Conventual Church

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. 

Carmona-Iglesia del Salvador
El Salvador Church

This church is located in one of the most important areas in the city, at one end of the main square. The former school of San Teodomiro, founded by the Society of Jesus in 1619, faced this square.

Iglesia de San Carlos El Real
San Carlos El Real Church

This former church of the Society of Jesus dates from the 17th century. When the Jesuits left, the convent was abandoned, and the church was stripped of its most interesting works. The main altarpiece was found in the parish of El Saucejo. The entire church became the property of the State -hence the epithet Real.

La Concepción Parish Church

This late 15th-century Mudejar building features some Romanesque elements, such as thick walls.

The transversal arches and side entrance were added in the mid-16th century.

The tower’s bell chamber was built in the Baroque period. The entrance has a modern lintelled porch covered by a groin vault supported by columns.

Écija-Iglesia de Santa Bárbara
Santa Barbara Church

The church has three naves separated by semi-circular arches on pillars; the central nave is covered by a barrel vault, with groin vaults on the side naves. Although it is mostly a 19th century, neoclassical building, parts of the church are from earlier times. Legend has it that the current structure is built over a Roman palace.

Iglesia del Convento de La Concepción
Immaculate Conception Conventual Church

Built between the 16th and 17th centuries, the church belongs to the namesake convent, founded by Blessed Beatrice of Silva for the Franciscan Conceptionists. 

Iglesia del Convento del Carmen
Nuestra Señora del Carmen Conventual Church

The Carmelite Order occupied the convent, donated by Juan Téllez Girón, in 1606. The construction likely began in the early 16th century, as the unfinished chancel has Gothic and Renaissance elements. The naves and portal were renovated in the 18th century. The church has three naves covered by a barrel vault and supported by pillars. Current convent of the Carmelite Fathers
