San Vicente Church

It was apparently built on the remains of an early Christian and Visigothic temple. On the exterior it shows almost no traces of its original structure, except for a Gothic doorway located at the foot, very sober and simple, formed by simple archivolts of pointed arches. Among the various extensions to which this temple was subjected, the construction of its interesting Sacramental Chapel stands out, an exceptional work carried out according to the project of the architect Pedro de Silva in 1761 after the destruction of the previously existing one due to the Lisbon Earthquake of 1755. Church of great popularity and tradition, in it are established two of the traditional brotherhoods of the Sevillian Holy Week: Las Penas and Las Siete Palabras, distributed in three chapels. It is presided over by an altarpiece made with remains from the convent of Carmen, renovated in 1785, where the image of the Virgen de los Dolores, a carving attributed to Blas Molner, is venerated. On a side altar is the image of Jesús de las Penas. The Brotherhood of the Seven Words is presented in its chapels of the nave of the Gospel. Restored in 1873 and between 1936-1939, it belongs to this Brotherhood since 1881. They contain three neoclassical altarpieces, with the image of the Christ of the Seven Words of the sixteenth century, in the central one along with Mary Most Holy of Remedies and St. John the Evangelist.
