El Arco de Mairena del Alcor

This double, semi-circular, Mudejar-style brick door was likely one of the town’s old gates during the lower medieval period. Inside the arch is a small 18th-century altarpiece with the images of Jesus the Nazarene and Our Lady of the Sun. The picture-perfect arch has become the iconic symbol of Mairena del Alcor, reproduced in paintings, postcards and photographs.

Bellísima imagen de EL Arco de Mairena del Alcor donde hacer bonitas fotos y videos del lugar. Precioso el centro histórico de Mairena con la Plaza de Antonio Mairena con la capilla del cristo de la Carcel, EL ARCO, La Iglesia Parrroquial de la Asunción y El Castillo de Jorge Bonsor.
