Museum that exhibits the beautiful clothes of the Macarena and the pasos that carry the two statues during the Holy Week

If you're not in Seville on Holy Thursday, you can still admire the city's most revered sacred image: Santa María de la Esperanza, better known as La Macarena. Carved in the 17th century, crowned in gold and adorned with five diamonds and emerald brooches, it stands behind the main altarpiece. Also present is the Cristo de la Sentencia, who goes out in procession on Good Friday. Soak up the religious fervor of the faithful who come to admire them and kiss the crucifix. The Museo Tesoro de la Macarena (and its store) exhibits the Macarena's magnificent garments and the pasos that carry the two statues during Holy Week.

On your way out, take a look at the remains of the 12th-century Almohad ramparts (to the east of the basilica) and the Andalusian Parliament (large building opposite the basilica), once a hospital.

Basilique et Puerta Macarena
Très belle basilique en retrait du centre touristique. La Puerta Macarena en face qui ouvre sur les remparts est actuellement en rénovation.

Très belle basilique située un peu à l'extérieure du circuit touristique (vous pouvez tout de même vous y rendre à pied). Très belle façade et intérieur splendide

Cette basilique est magnifique, tant à l'extérieur qu'à l'intérieur. Pas trop surchargées mais riches en décor, elle coupe le souffle. et son entrée est gratuite!

Basilique très fréquentée
Une basilique importante dans le coeur des andaloux mais un peu déçu par l'intérieur
