Convento Santa María de Jesús, Franciscan convent in Seville old town, Spain.

The convent features a single-nave church with barrel vaults, Mudéjar coffered ceilings, and a monumental altarpiece supported by Salomonic columns.

Founded in 1502 by Jorge Alberto de Portugal and Felipa Melo, the convent underwent substantial architectural modifications in 1696 and 1850.

The temple displays numerous artworks, including sculptures by Pedro Roldán and Luisa Roldán, alongside mural paintings of archangels from 1589.

Located on Calle Águilas in Seville's old town, visitors can explore designated areas while maintaining respect for the resident religious community.

The lintelled portal, created by Alonso de Vandelvira, incorporates a relief of the Virgin with Child sculpted by Juan de Oviedo in 1590.
