Iglesia de San Gil Abad, Gothic-Mudejar church in Old Town, Spain

The church features three naves divided by pointed arches supported by brick pillars, with a polygonal apse and wooden ceiling structures.

The structure was built in the mid-13th century under Alfonso X's orders on the site of a former mosque after Ferdinand III reconquered Seville.

The church houses the Brotherhood of El Rocio de la Macarena, which conducts annual pilgrimages to Almonte during the Pentecost celebration.

Visitors can access the church Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM and 6:00 PM to 9:30 PM, with modified hours on Sundays.

The church maintains an internal passage connecting it directly to the adjacent Basilica of La Macarena near the historic Macarena Wall.
