Iglesia de San Alberto, Catholic church in Seville old town, Spain.
Iglesia de San Alberto is a church building in Seville's old town featuring a single nave divided into five sections. The interior displays religious sculptures and artworks, including a statue of the Crucified Christ accompanied by the Virgin Mary.
The building was founded in 1602 with permission from Archbishop Fernando Niño de Guevara and reached its current form in 1626 as part of a Carmelite monastery. These early decades shaped its role as a religious center in the city.
The church has been linked to the Congregation of the Oratory of Saint Philip Neri since 1877, serving as a venue for worship and musical performances. Visitors can experience how religious practice and artistic events shape the life of the community here.
The building is located in the heart of Seville's old quarter and is easily accessible on foot to visitors exploring the historical center. Its central location makes it a natural stop when walking through the old streets.
Inside the building stands an 18th-century altarpiece that originally came from the Cristo de la Expiración shrine. This ornate piece was moved to its current location after the French invasion of 1810, preserving both the artwork and its story.
