Tour Details

Écija once had 14 churches and 18 convents. At the designated time, we will meet at the Plaza de Santiago to begin the tour.

We will pass by the Convent of Las Marroquíes and reach the Santa Cruz Parish Church. Finally, we will admire the exterior of the Church of San Pablo and Church of Santo Domingo before returning to our starting point.
