Hospital de La Caridad

Temprado, 3, Seville, Spain
Tel: +34 95 4223232
 

This building is associated with one of the most illustrious figures of Seville's history: Miguel Manara, who had a reputation as a womaniser and reveller, and who withdrew to a hermitage at the age of 34. He drew up rules which gave the poor and those condemned to death the right to a burial. San Jorge Church is the part of the building that can be visited. It was built between 1641 and 1721, and contains paintings by Valdes Leal and Murillo and carvings by Pedro Roldan such as the Santo Entierro. It is located just next to the crypt where the body of Manara lies. Courtyards surrounded by columns, Sevillian screens and tiles are some of the other interesting features of this building, which is now a home for the elderly. It is very near the Maestranza bullring and the historical quarter.
