Hacienda Ibarburu, 18th-century agricultural estate in Dos Hermanas, Spain.
Hacienda Ibarburu is an 18th-century rural estate in Dos Hermanas featuring a central courtyard with a circular fountain as its focal point. Surrounding this courtyard across two levels are stables, agricultural storage buildings, and workers' quarters that formed the working heart of the property.
The property was built around 1748 by Lorenzo Ignacio de Ibarburu on the site of a former vineyard and olive grove. He established it as a major estate operation and named it San Lorenzo de Miravalle, marking the transformation of the agricultural landscape.
The estate displays classic elements of Seville agricultural architecture with marble columns and wooden beams throughout its structures. The characteristic tower served as a viewpoint for estate owners to survey their lands and was a common feature of properties in this region.
The estate is located on the outskirts of Dos Hermanas along the former N-VI road toward Los Palacios and can be accessed for viewing. Visit in the morning when sunlight illuminates the courtyards and stone work, making it easier to see the architectural details across the property.
The estate contains an extensive well system accessed through two underground galleries that run beneath the property. These hidden passages served both practical purposes for water management and provided direct routes to the rear courtyards with their original fountains and washing areas.
