St. Bernard Parish in Seville: photos, reviews

About

In the vibrant city of Seville, St. Bernard Parish stands as a testament to both history and artistry. Designed by José Álvarez, this late 18th-century church features a Latin cross structure topped with an octagonal dome. Renowned for its neoclassical main altarpiece showcasing the Virgen del Refugio, it also houses the evocative painting "El viejo" by Francisco Herrera on the Final Judgment altarpiece. A key element is the altar of Santísimo Cristo de la Salud, reflecting the church's role as the headquarters of the Hermandad del Santísimo Cristo de la Salud and Ntra. Sra. del Refugio. Visitors can access the church with ease through its wheelchair accessible entrance on calle Santo Rey y Cristo de la Salud, in the neighborhood bearing its name. A five-minute stroll from the "Campamento" parking ensures convenience, allowing ample time to admire this emblematic Sevillian temple full of exquisite altarpieces and ancient imagery. With a commendable 4.7 rating on Google, it's no wonder this spiritual haven is a sought-after attraction.
