Coria del Río

Located at the foot of La Cornisa del Aljarafe, Coria del Río spans both banks of the Guadalquivir River with its main settlement on the right bank.

Archaeological discoveries at Cerro de San Juan reveal continuous settlements dating back to 3000 BC, with evidence of Neolithic, Chalcolithic, and Bronze Age communities.

The Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Estrella stands as the primary religious structure, displaying elements of Mudejar Gothic architecture through multiple restoration periods.

The municipality connects to Seville via the E-803 highway, with regular bus services operating between the two locations throughout the day.

Approximately 650 inhabitants carry the surname Japón, inherited from Japanese delegates who settled here during Hasekura Tsunenaga's diplomatic mission in 1613.
