Los Palacios y Villafranca

Located between Las Marismas and La Campiña regions, Los Palacios y Villafranca extends across 114 square kilometers of land at 8 meters above sea level.

The settlement originated from a Roman site called Searotinus, later becoming a Muslim settlement known as Serotín before King Pedro I constructed the Atalayuela palace in the 14th century.

The Santa María la Blanca Parish Church, built in the 15th century, contains a notable altarpiece created by Flemish painter Pablo Legot during the 17th century.

From Seville, visitors can reach the municipality via the A-4 motorway exit 558 or the AP-4 toll road exit 23, with regular M-134 bus service available.

The municipality received national recognition for its tomato production in 2012 with the Tomate de Los Palacios label earning the National Collective Brand award.
