Description of the Seville Holy Week tour

Without a single doubt, The Pilatos Palace is a reference for the Sevillian Holy Week. A palace that wanted to be a competior with the Alcazar not only in beauty but also in power. According to the legend, Don Fadrique, one of the palace owner’s, in the XVIth century, after travelling to Holy Land realized the distance from his parents´palace to the Cruzdelcampo Cross was exactly the same one as the one from Pilatos´Palace in Jerusalen to the Golgotha mountain. As he was a very strong believer, he thought it could not be a coincidence, and he started a Via Crucis with the different Stations to the Cross. In the palace we will discover amazing collections of art, ceramic tiles and wonderful gardens.

Then we will continue to the district of the Alfalfa, with intricate narrow streets in what it was once the Medina. We will arrive to the  Salvador’s church, from where several Brotherhoods start the procesions during Holy Week. It is the second largest church in town. It was built on the former Mosque remains, in fact we can still admire its XIIth century minaret. The works of art as The Christ of Passion or the Christ of Love by Juan de Mesa and Martínez Montañez will touch you somehow.

Meeting point: we will pick you up at your hotel, if it is in the city center. Otherwise, at the foot of the Giralda tower.

Tickets are not included, but notice the ticket of the cathedral includes the Salvadors church as well.
