- RjessMMMVancouver, Washington561 contributionsPeaceful small church with an interesting historyA quaint small church that we visited between timed visits to the Alcazar and the Seville Cathedral. Not expensive to get in and the history was very interesting. The fee does include the audio guide. When we were there, the church was quite empty. Perhaps 5 of us in the whole structure. There is a small area with interesting paintings. What was interesting is one of the workers opened it up as we got closer to this area and then secured it after we left. If you have the time, I would take a look. Enjoy.Visited November 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 12 November 2023
- permia64,686 contributionsExtraordinarily beautifulIt's an exceptionally beautiful institution. And particularly the exquisite Baroque Church. Its first purpose was as a residence for priests, particularly the elderly, indigent and disabled of these. A delightful courtyard has a sunken fountain and many orange trees. All surrounded by wonderful colonnades. Art, both Old Masters and modern. is to admired. Amongst the former are works by the 17th century artist Lucas Valdés. Ángeles Agrela’s Afrodita en Procesion is a striking piece. Carmen Laffon’s Maquina de Coser Cubierta is another modern work.Visited February 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 10 March 2024
- Lee BBristol, United Kingdom22 contributionsHidden Gem! Beautiful ChapelWe had little bit of time to kill on our last day in Seville and opted to spend our last hour or so here. We're really glad we did -this seems to be something of a hidden gem! Our jaws dropped as we entered the chapel in one of the rooms, beautifully painted top from bottom. It felt like being in Rome. As it's not listed as a top attraction it's not overly busy. The two female staff who dealt with us were both really friendly, which was an added bonus.Visited April 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 5 May 2024

Stunningly underrated.Encapsulating the 3 noble arts: Sculpture, Painting & Architecture this once thriving hospice from the 17th century was only recently closed in the 1970s. Entry at €12 included a fairly descriptive audio guide. The chapel is the highlight of this space.Visited July 2024Travelled soloWritten 3 July 2024

I was looking forward to this experience but it disappointed somewhat. The church and the building itself were beautiful but the audio guide was cumbersome and the admission price of 8£pp was a lot for what we got (considering the amazing cathedral just down the road charges only 10£). There was also a lot of activity happening in the church with people moving pews around for what seemed like an event. Maybe we just caught this experience on an off day!?

In general we were very pleased with our visits in Seville, but this site seemed expensive to us. The main charge is for the Velazquez Centre which is a small room off the main patio containing about 15 paintings (three of which were out on loan when we visited). I do not dispute the quality of the paintings which include works by Velazquez, Murillo and Zurbaran plus an interesting view of Seville from its Golden Age - and a guest picture by Picasso when we visited. The audio guide (included in the price) gave background to the pictures. Once you leave the paings you see the patio where an old theatre used to be and the highly Baroque church - which you will either love or hate depending on your opinion of the baroque decoration.

This building is tucked away in tiny side streets and we had dificulty finding it. The baroque church, which was the reason for our visit, was beautiful, but we were not particularly interestd in seeing the paintings. The entrance fee included an audio tour but it seemed expensive when compared to other entry fees in Seville.

Fantastic place. This small museum is relly worth a visit. You can find teh Velasques painting from Seville and other amazing paintings from the 17th century. The place itself is fantastic and exhibitions rooms small. So one hour will be suitable for the visit.

A hidden gem. Entry includes an informative audio tour of the cloisters, church and other areas including art galleries. The church is beautifully painted and the cloisters a peaceful spot to sit and get away from the crowds at the cathedral and other more-visited churches. A welcome escape from the hustle and bustle...

We visited here at 9pm and were the only visitors. You visit it by audio guide which contained a lot more information than we needed. The memorable things fir us were the chapel, staircase and paintings by Velasquez. The lady on Reception was very friendly and eco,wined it all to us. A lovely building with lots of interesting art.

What a beautiful place in a city of wonderful buildings. This hidden gem is near the cathedral and was originally dedicated to supporting ailing priests. Beautiful and tranquil giving a feeling of peace and inner calm. Stunning and definitely worth a visit.

Hi, thank you for sharing your positive experience.
When is the Hospital de los Venerables open? Is it true that it closes at 2 pm?
Is it true that only the church is open to the public?
Is everything visible or are the renovations inside.
Also I read that they raised the price to 8 Euros that is almost the same price as the Real Alcazat that is 20 times bigger.

I love Casa Roman. Many say it is touristy but I take all my customers there and all of enjoy. Best Jamon in Seville, Tortilla de patatas and excellent solomillo al whisky and it is right in the corner in Jamerdana street.
